Built from micrograin solid carbide and coated with TiCN, this tool delivers extended wear resistance and thermal stability in demanding cutting environments. The 4-flute, 40-degree right-hand spiral geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining a smooth finish. With a 0.5-inch mill diameter and 1.25-inch length of cut, it handles a wide range of contour milling, profiling, and slotting applications. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, aerospace, or general fabrication will find this a reliable Series 116 tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling operations on high-temperature alloys, stainless steel, and steel in both production and prototype environments. The TiCN coating provides low friction and high surface hardness, making it effective where tool life and finish quality are critical. The 0.5-inch shank diameter mounts securely in standard end mill holders and collet chucks used in vertical and horizontal machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating for improved hardness and reduced friction in ferrous and high-temp alloy applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute, 40-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip flow and surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall end geometry for contour milling, 3D profiling, and radius bottom slots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design with right-hand cutting direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMill diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches for consistent fit and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on high-temperature alloys, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Verify the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the tool holder per the holder manufacturer specifications. Confirm spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut are set to values appropriate for the workpiece material and machine capability before engaging the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\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: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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: Micrograin Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\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\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Temperature Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 116\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 116-03212\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROMAX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51986215076146,"sku":"116-03212","price":134.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3fee2afc25697010a05a0604d7defdfe.jpg?v=1789985990","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/promax-116-03212-ball-end-mill-0-5-in-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
