With a 1\/2 inch mill diameter, 5 flutes, and a 40-degree helix angle, this single-end tool delivers efficient chip evacuation and a smooth surface finish in demanding materials. The AlCrN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life in high-speed and dry cutting conditions. A micrograin carbide substrate adds toughness and wear resistance. This tool is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill suits vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers as well as manual knee mills handling ferrous alloys, stainless steel, titanium, and hardened materials where AlCrN coating performance is required. The variable index flute spacing reduces chatter and improves finish quality at elevated feed rates. With a 1 inch length of cut and 3 inch overall length, it fits standard tool holders and collet chucks accepting a 1\/2 inch shank. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry follow conventional milling conventions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide substrate for hardness and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlCrN coating for thermal stability and oxidation resistance in dry or high-speed cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-flute, 40-degree helix design for improved chip flow and surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable index fluting reduces harmonic vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute — compatible with standard CNC spindle direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-length, 1\/2 inch shank square end mill suitable for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines equipped with ER or end mill collet systems accepting a 1\/2 inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the shank to the correct depth in the collet or tool holder per the holder manufacturer specification, and verify runout before beginning a cut. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines for speeds, feeds, and coolant strategy when using AlCrN-coated carbide tooling.\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\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: 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\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlCrN\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\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\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\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: 27850010B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744764690738,"sku":"27850010B","price":201.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3299386d3126aff7da5fd93db3ed0781_58bd1cd4-23af-435d-bdd7-cff71a6310cd.jpg?v=1788860285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-27850010b-square-end-mill-1-2-in-5-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
