Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers consistent edge geometry and dimensional stability under cutting loads. The tool features a 45-degree helix angle and a bright uncoated finish, making it well suited for aluminum alloys and other non-ferrous materials where coating buildup or galling can be a concern. With a 0.5-inch mill diameter, 0.625-inch length of cut, and 3-inch overall length, this stub-length end mill fits standard tool holders used in CNC milling and manual knee mills. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for cutting aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous workpiece materials coded N in the ISO material classification system. The stub length and straight shank configuration make it appropriate for applications requiring rigidity in short-reach setups. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, expanding its use to slotting, pocketing, and profile milling operations. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry are standard for conventional CNC spindle configurations. The spiral flute design promotes chip evacuation, which is critical when cutting soft, gummy non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for edge strength and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows plunge, slot, pocket, and profile milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish reduces built-up edge in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub-length body provides added rigidity in short-reach setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or standard tooling selection for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 0.5-inch straight shank, within the SECO Series A245 end mill family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or CNC setup technician. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the tool holder secured before inserting or removing the end mill. Use a calibrated tool-holding system and verify runout against the TIR specification before cutting. Follow shop-standard speeds and feeds for the workpiece material and verify tool overhang does not exceed the stub-length capacity of the setup.\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: 0.625 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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: Micrograin Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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 to -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0600 to -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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 17002976\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51564201017650,"sku":"17002976","price":109.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff13367177960266139f121457a41b37_436b012b-93e8-497b-b731-0f5533406751.jpg?v=1786514084","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17002976-square-end-mill-0-5-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
