It features a 3\/8 inch cutting diameter, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 45-degree high helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation in soft, gummy materials. The ANF coating is applied via a PVD process and is optimized for non-ferrous applications, reducing built-up edge and improving surface finish. With a 2-flute, right-hand spiral geometry and a single-end configuration, this tool is suited for both roughing and finishing operations in a single setup. Machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC programmers specify this end mill for general-purpose and finishing work on aluminum alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ball end mill is intended for use on CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual mills where a 3\/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank is the standard interface. The ball nose profile makes it appropriate for profiling, contouring, slotting, and 3D surface work in aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. The 2-1\/2 inch overall length and standard length designation make it a direct fit for everyday production and prototype milling tasks. Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry, expanding its range of tool paths without requiring a pre-drilled pilot hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in non-ferrous milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANF coating (PVD) reduces built-up edge and extends tool life in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree high helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall nose geometry supports profiling, contouring, and 3D surface finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for standard spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 3\/8 inch collets or end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual vertical mills.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool changer or collet nut is secured before loading. Verify shank runout does not exceed the 0.0005 inch TIR maximum specification after tool seating. Follow the machine manufacturer torque specifications for the collet nut or end mill holder used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (1.0000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (2.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees (High)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANF (PVD)\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 Spiral\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: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and Non-Ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0020 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\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0600 \/ -0.0600 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: AB245\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 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: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10022736\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51564173951282,"sku":"10022736","price":99.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0b0853b24a15c1656f3148720602494f.jpg?v=1786513260","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-10022736-ball-end-mill-3-8-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
