It features a TiCN (titanium carbonitride) coating that increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge. The tool is built from micrograin carbide, which supports tighter tolerances and longer tool life compared to standard carbide grades. With a 0.25 inch cutting diameter and a 40-degree helix angle, this end mill is well suited for high-speed finishing passes and light-to-moderate slotting and peripheral milling. Machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC programmers specify this style for close-tolerance work on vertical mills and machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in CNC machining centers, vertical knee mills, and toolroom applications where a short-length regular series tool is appropriate. The centercutting geometry allows plunge entry in addition to standard peripheral cuts, which is useful in die and mold work, fixture machining, and general metalworking. The right-hand cut with right-hand spiral fluting is the standard configuration for conventional and climb milling on most production setups. It is a single-end tool with a square shank and is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-flute geometry increases feed rate capability and improves surface finish on ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating provides elevated hardness and wear resistance for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide substrate maintains edge sharpness under demanding cutting conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design permits direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled start hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute configuration matches standard spindle rotation on most machining centers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-specification solid carbide square end mill for use in standard 1\/4 inch collets, ER collet chucks, and hydraulic or shrink-fit toolholders with a 0.25 inch bore, compatible with vertical CNC machining centers and manual knee mills accepting 1\/4 inch shank tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC toolroom technician. The spindle must be fully stopped and the machine powered down before changing tooling. Insert the shank fully into the collet or toolholder, leaving no more shank exposed than necessary, and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation before beginning a cut, as excessive runout will accelerate edge wear and reduce dimensional accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 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 (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\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: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 112\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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: PROMAX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 112-01612\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROMAX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51987678789938,"sku":"112-01612","price":72.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0ecc0dff73c2bcfdb91a8c67e17706f1.jpg?v=1789986994","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/promax-112-01612-square-end-mill-5-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
