Cleveland C33084 Square End Mill 17/32 in 4 Flute Hss Tin

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C33084 is a double-end, four-flute square end mill designed for precision milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Ground from high speed steel (HSS) and coated with titanium nitride (TiN), it offers improved surface hardness and heat resistance compared to uncoated HSS tooling. The 17/32 inch (0.5313 inch) cutting diameter pairs with a 5/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank that also features a Weldon flat for positive retention in standard end mill holders. A 30-degree spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation. This tool is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry without a pilot hole. Licensed machinists, tool and die makers, and CNC operators are the primary users.

The C33084 belongs to Cleveland's HD-4C series, a regular-length line built for general-purpose slot milling, profiling, and peripheral cutting. The 1-3/8 inch length of cut supports moderate-depth passes in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel. Right-hand cut with right-hand flute orientation makes it compatible with standard spindle rotation on vertical machining centers and manual knee mills. The double-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending service life before replacement.

Key Features

• Double-end configuration gives two cutting ends per tool
• TiN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without pre-drilling
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces
• Weldon flat on shank prevents axial pull-out in side-lock holders
• HD-4C series regular-length design balances rigidity and reach

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 5/8 inch end mill holders, collet chucks, and Weldon-style side-lock holders on vertical machining centers and manual mills. Rated for cutting cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists following shop safety protocols. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully into the holder and torque the set screw against the Weldon flat to the holder manufacturer's specification. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, and select speeds and feeds appropriate for the workpiece material and depth of cut.
