With a 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inch) mill diameter, 5 flutes, and a 0.03 inch corner radius, this tool is built for both roughing and finishing operations. The ALTiN (ALtima) PVD coating provides thermal resistance and hardness, extending tool life when cutting ferrous and exotic materials. The extended reach design and long-length configuration make it suited for deep-pocket and contour milling where standard-length tools fall short. Machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, aerospace, and precision manufacturing environments are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is engineered for use on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium  -  material groups P, M, K, and S in the ISO classification system. The 5-flute, right-hand cutting geometry with a medium helix and close pitch delivers efficient chip evacuation and surface finish on CNC machining centers with standard toolholders. The single-end, centercutting configuration allows plunge entry and full contouring capability. The extended reach length of 2.125 inches accommodates deep-cavity work without sacrificing rigidity at the shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for maximum rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eALtima (ALTiN) PVD coating for high-heat, high-hardness cutting of steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 flutes with close pitch for improved surface finish and material removal rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.03 inch corner radius reduces stress concentration and extends tool life at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended reach design with 2.125 inch reach length for deep-pocket milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows plunge milling without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with standard straight-cylindrical toolholders.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolholder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's torque and runout specifications for collet or hydraulic chuck engagement. Confirm tool projection length and reach clearance before initiating the cutting program to avoid interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium (38 degrees)\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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima (ALTiN), PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End, Centercutting\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\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 17831224NA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743919440178,"sku":"17831224NA","price":239.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5782dc861f852580047f18c48d6abb50_d534f2d9-39c9-41a9-b3ed-ff0f41cabdff.jpg?v=1788851285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-17831224na-corner-radius-end-mill-5-16in-5-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
