With a 1\/2 inch cutting diameter, a 0.03 inch corner radius, and 7 flutes in a super close pitch configuration, this tool is built to produce smooth, accurate edge profiles at high feed rates. The ALtima Blaze PVD coating provides thermal resistance and wear protection suited for high-temperature alloy applications. A 38-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and surface finish quality. This end mill is a single-end, short-length design with a straight cylindrical shank for use in standard toolholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for finishing cuts in CNC machining centers and milling operations where tight tolerances and fine surface finishes are required. Primary workpiece materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium — materials common in aerospace, medical device, and precision manufacturing environments. The right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting geometry are standard for conventional vertical and horizontal milling setups. It is not center-cutting and should not be used for plunge entry. Typical users include CNC machinists and toolroom operators working to close dimensional tolerances on hardened or difficult-to-machine materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.03 inch corner radius reduces stress concentration and extends edge life on finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7-flute super close pitch geometry increases feed rate capability and surface finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALtima Blaze PVD coating provides high-temperature wear resistance for steel, stainless, and titanium applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e38-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip flow and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers rigidity and dimensional stability over extended run cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort-length flute design (1-1\/4 inch LOC) improves stiffness and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard toolholders accepting a 1\/2 inch straight cylindrical shank.

Ensure the toolholder bore is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. This tool is not center-cutting and requires a pre-drilled or pre-milled entry point for any plunging operation. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting tool offsets and clamping torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0300 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (0.3150 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (1.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima Blaze (PVD)\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\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Super Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0011 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\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: 18050014B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727206154546,"sku":"18050014B","price":215.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/88b5fcf4534fccaf20cb270380d8bfc2.jpg?v=1788674711","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-18050014b-corner-radius-end-mill-1-2-in-7-fl","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
