Built from micrograin carbide and coated with AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride), it delivers heat and wear resistance suited to high-speed dry or near-dry cutting. The cutter features a 30-degree helix angle with an upcut, right-hand flute geometry and right-hand cut direction. With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter and 1.5 inch length of cut, this end mill handles slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling tasks. It is a single-end tool with a 0.5 inch straight shank and a 6 inch overall length. Machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TC17132 is suited for milling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hardened steels, stainless, and similar materials where AlTiN coating performance is an advantage. The 2-flute configuration provides chip clearance in slotting cuts and works well in applications where a balance between feed rate and finish quality is needed. Its 6 inch overall length and 0.5 inch shank diameter make it compatible with standard ER collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit tooling used on vertical and horizontal machining centers and manual knee mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting geometry allows plunge entry into workpiece material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand upcut flute direction for standard spindle use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design with 0.5 inch shank for direct holder mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit solid carbide square end mill for standard 0.5 inch end mill holders, ER collet chucks, and shrink-fit tooling on CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 0.5 inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or CNC setup technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and power is locked out before changing tooling. Verify holder bore cleanliness and proper pull-out retention torque per the toolholder manufacturer specification before running. Confirm correct spindle rotation direction matches the right-hand cut designation of this tool before initiating a 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: 1.5 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: 6 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 (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\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 Upcut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.56 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: TITAN USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TC17132\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TITAN USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728078733618,"sku":"TC17132","price":161.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a75a47cc67084d8fd4da07fde4b43711.jpg?v=1788687549","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/titan-usa-tc17132-square-end-mill-0-5in-2-flute-carbide-altin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
