Part of the MEB430 series, it features a 0.0400-inch cutting diameter, a 0.0200-inch nose radius, and a 4-flute spiral geometry with a 30-degree medium helix angle. The submicron carbide grade provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for both roughing and finishing operations in demanding CNC machining environments. The bright, uncoated finish suits applications where coating buildup clearance is not required. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on small-feature contouring and profiling rely on tools in this size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for small-feature 3D contouring, slot milling, and die\/mold work where tight tolerances and fine surface finish are required. The 0.1200-inch reach length and 0.0400-inch neck diameter make it appropriate for applications requiring controlled depth engagement on miniature or precision components. It is a single-end, right-hand cut tool with a right-hand flute direction and a straight-cylindrical shank, fitting standard 1\/8-inch collets and tool holders. Extended reach and coolant-through features are not included in this configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0400-inch ball end cutting diameter with 0.0200-inch nose radius for fine-feature profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute spiral geometry with 30-degree medium helix for balanced chip evacuation and surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubmicron solid carbide grade for high hardness and edge retention across multiple workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction; single-end configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous metals and applications where coating is not required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for roughing and finishing in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and superalloys including titanium (ISO material codes P, M, K, N, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits standard 1\/8-inch straight-cylindrical collets and tool holders.

Secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully within the collet or tool holder to the recommended grip length before tightening. Verify runout does not exceed the specified TIR maximum of 0.0050 inches after installation. At this diameter, tool deflection and runout are critical factors — confirm holder condition and collet cleanliness before each setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0200 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: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1200 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide, Submicron Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003eEnd Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys and Titanium\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\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0600 \/ -0.0600 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\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0050 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: MEB430\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 17002701\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562600628530,"sku":"17002701","price":36.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8c3a7c20c9865250b586f3cdf81ebb8f.jpg?v=1786480536","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17002701-ball-end-mill-0-04-in-4-flute-solid-carbide-meb430","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
