Built from micrograin carbide and coated with AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride), this tool handles elevated cutting temperatures and abrasive workpiece materials without rapid edge breakdown. The 3\/4 inch diameter cutting face and 5-flute geometry deliver a strong combination of feed rate capability and surface finish quality. With a 38-degree helix angle and right-hand cut and flute direction, this end mill is well suited to modern CNC milling centers running aggressive toolpaths. It is a single-end, non-extended-reach tool intended for precision shop and production use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling operations on a broad range of metallic workpiece materials. The AlTiN coating and micrograin carbide substrate make it particularly effective on hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, titanium alloys, and heat-resistant superalloys — material groups corresponding to ISO codes H, K, M, P, and S. Typical applications include slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling on CNC vertical and horizontal machining centers in job shops, aerospace, and general manufacturing environments. The center-cutting capability allows plunge entry where required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention in difficult-to-machine alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating provides high-temperature oxidation resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute design increases metal removal rates compared to standard 4-flute geometry while maintaining chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e38-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish on ferrous and exotic materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting configuration supports direct plunge and ramping entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction — compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the M.A. FORD Series 178W end mill line, designed for use in standard 3\/4 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit toolholders on CNC milling machines.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or changing tooling. Use a properly sized and clean toolholder to achieve the specified runout tolerance — contamination or a worn holder will reduce tool life significantly. Confirm tool projection and reach against the programmed toolpath before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch (0.7500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch (0.75 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\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\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.0051 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Workpiece Materials (ISO)\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, P, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 pounds\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: 17875000AW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748218503474,"sku":"17875000AW","price":493.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/94a66028cc0a32227354af1db9807783_8b369332-5ba4-48c9-bfa9-773f4b8107e2.jpg?v=1788890576","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-17875000aw-square-end-mill-3-4-in-5-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
