It features a 0.5 inch cutting diameter, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 30-degree helix spiral flute geometry that promotes chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup at the cutting edge. The TiCN coating adds surface hardness and lubricity, extending tool life in abrasive workpiece materials. Manufactured to M42 cobalt grade, the C32550 delivers the toughness needed when high-speed steel tools fall short. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments rely on this geometry for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C32550 belongs to the CLEVELAND HGC-2 series, which is optimized for cutting high-temperature alloys, stainless steel grades, and general steel. The 0.5 inch straight cylindrical shank with Weldon flat accepts standard end mill holders and set-screw toolholders across CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The regular length classification and 3.25 inch overall length suit most standard reach applications without the deflection risk associated with extended-reach tooling. Centercutting geometry allows plunge milling as part of a complete milling cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction resists heat and wear in stainless steel and high-temperature alloy cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN finish increases surface hardness and reduces built-up edge on difficult materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree helix spiral flute promotes efficient chip flow and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeldon flat on shank provides positive drive retention in set-screw toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 0.5 inch end mill holders, Weldon-flat toolholders, and collet chucks on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Secure the Weldon flat against the set screw to prevent axial pullout during heavy cuts. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling per standard shop lockout procedures. Consult machine tool documentation and applicable shop safety standards for correct spindle speed and feed rate selection for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\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 with Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\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\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\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Temperature Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HGC-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C32550\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693726531890,"sku":"C32550","price":64.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/048c10853f4f66fd53697281479190a8.jpg?v=1788316613","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c32550-square-end-mill-0-5-inch-2-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
