Built from micrograin carbide, it delivers a 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch) cutting diameter and a 1\/2 inch length of cut. The variable helix design at 38 and 41 degrees reduces chatter and improves chip evacuation during aggressive cuts. An AlCrN coating provides heat and wear resistance, extending tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. This is a right-hand cut, right-hand flute, single-end configuration — the standard setup for CNC machining centers and manual mills alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in ferrous metals, stainless steels, and hardened materials where heat resistance and edge stability are critical. The standard length profile and 7\/16 inch shank diameter make it compatible with common collet systems found in vertical and horizontal machining centers. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry. Machinists and CNC operators working in production or job-shop environments will find this tool appropriate for tight-tolerance finish passes as well as aggressive roughing strategies depending on depth-of-cut parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable helix at 38 and 41 degrees reduces harmonic vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlCrN coating provides high-temperature and oxidation resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute helical design supports both roughing and finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement end mill compatible with standard 7\/16 inch collet or end mill holder systems on CNC machining centers and manual vertical mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power isolated per shop safety procedures. Ensure the collet or tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Torque the collet nut to the tool holder manufacturer specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut to protect both the tool and the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (2.5 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38\/41 degrees (Variable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlCrN\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\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: 27743700B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731920978226,"sku":"27743700B","price":145.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/736f1c0906db09c1884ac25d714da5a9_87a89931-a71a-4f67-a2e7-3aab96296d5a.jpg?v=1788736634","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-27743700b-square-end-mill-7-16-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
