Built to Series A245 specifications, it features a 0.25 inch cutting diameter, a 1.25 inch length of cut, and a 4 inch overall length on a 0.25 inch straight shank. The 45-degree helix angle and two-flute spiral geometry promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes. Micrograin carbide construction delivers the edge strength and rigidity needed for consistent performance in production and job-shop environments. The bright uncoated finish is suited to non-ferrous materials where coating buildup can cause issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for cutting aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous metals where a sharp, uncoated carbide edge outperforms coated alternatives. The centercutting design supports both peripheral milling and plunge operations without a pre-drilled entry point. At 4 inch overall length with a regular-length classification, it fits standard tool holders and collet chucks used on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. It is sold as a single-end tool, meaning the cutting end is not reversible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for edge retention in non-ferrous cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle with two spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry supports direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous materials where coating adhesion is a concern\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0020 inches and TIR maximum of 0.0005 inches for close-tolerance work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 0.25 inch collet chucks, ER collet systems, or end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Power down and lock out the spindle before loading or changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before torquing the retention nut — inadequate engagement is a leading cause of tool pullout. Confirm runout with a dial indicator after installation; maximum TIR for this tool is 0.0005 inches.\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\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright \/ Uncoated\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 to -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: A245\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: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17002958\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557774229810,"sku":"17002958","price":93.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff13367177960266139f121457a41b37_eacdfb76-f867-452d-bc39-1dc510d4876e.jpg?v=1786394867","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17002958-square-end-mill-0-25-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
