The cutter measures 5\/16 inches in diameter with a 0.03-inch corner radius, 13\/16-inch length of cut, and a 2.5-inch overall length. It carries five flutes with a medium, right-hand spiral helix and is finished with an ALTiN (ALtima) PVD coating for extended tool life in abrasive and high-temperature applications. The straight cylindrical shank also measures 5\/16 inches in diameter. This tool is rated for both roughing and finishing operations and is suitable for use with standard toolholders. Licensed machinists and CNC programmers will find it well suited to precision work in close-pitch applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is engineered for cutting steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium  -  material groups P, M, K, and S in ISO classification. It is a single-end, centercutting tool with right-hand cutting direction, making it compatible with standard vertical and horizontal milling setups in job shop, die-and-mold, aerospace, and general metalworking environments. The long-length designation provides additional reach for deeper pockets and stepped features without sacrificing rigidity at this diameter. It is not configured for coolant-through delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALtima (ALTiN) PVD coating rated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFive-flute, close-pitch design supports both roughing and finishing in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.03-inch corner radius reduces stress concentration and extends edge life on workpiece corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with medium helix angle for balanced chip evacuation and cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard straight-bore toolholders accepting a 5\/16-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an energy-isolated state before tooling changes. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder and verify runout with a dial indicator before cutting. Confirm feeds, speeds, and depth-of-cut parameters are appropriate for the workpiece material and machine capability before engaging the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 inches (0.8125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima (ALTiN), PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0030 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: M.A. FORD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17831214A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739612152114,"sku":"17831214A","price":107.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/94a66028cc0a32227354af1db9807783_46a8ce87-652f-4089-a2d3-6aa60b14f5d4.jpg?v=1788816919","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-17831214a-corner-radius-end-mill-5-16-in-5-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
