1/8" Carbide End Mill
The M.A. Ford 11112501 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for general milling tasks. Its 0.125 inch cutting diameter and half inch length of cut suit slotting and profiling in a range of materials. The uncoated finish keeps the tool sharp for non-ferrous metals and plastics. Machinists and maintenance technicians will find it a reliable addition to their tooling inventory.
Straight shank eases holder fit
The 1/8 inch straight shank fits standard collets and end mill holders without adapters. Carbide brittleness means excessive runout or heavy interrupted cuts can chip the flutes. Use appropriate speeds and feeds for the workpiece material to prevent premature wear. Rigid setups and proper coolant or air blast help maintain tool life and part finish.
Verify shank and clearance first
Confirm your tool holder accepts a 1/8 inch shank before ordering. Check that the 1 1/2 inch overall length clears your machine's work envelope and any fixtures. The uncoated carbide substrate performs best in aluminium, brass and plastic; it is not optimised for hardened steels or high-temperature alloys. Ensure your spindle speed range matches the recommended parameters for the chosen material.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the 11112501 end mill is cutting correctly after installation?
Check that the .125 in shank seats fully in the collet, then run a test pass and confirm the .5 in length of cut produces a clean square profile without chatter.
What comes with the 11112501 end mill and what must I supply separately?
The box contains the single carbide square end mill; you must provide a compatible 1/8 in tool holder, collet or end-mill holder and the milling machine itself.
Which 11112501 variant should I choose for a 1/8 in diameter job?
The 11112501 is a single specification — 1/8 in diameter, .5 in length of cut, 1 1/2 in overall length, uncoated carbide — so select it when those exact dimensions match your operation.
