Cleveland C33736 Square End Mill 9/32 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C33736 is a two-flute square end mill made from high speed steel, designed for material removal and peripheral milling in machining centers and manual milling machines. With a 9/32-inch (0.2813 inch) cutting diameter and a 9/16-inch length of cut, this tool handles slotting, profiling, and pocketing operations where a smaller-diameter cutter is required. The 3/8-inch straight cylindrical shank with Weldon flat provides secure tool holding in standard collet chucks and end mill holders. Centercutting geometry allows plunge entry directly into workpiece material without pre-drilling. This end mill is part of the HG-2 series and is supplied uncoated.

The C33736 is suited for milling cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel in both job shop and production environments. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action across these material groups. At 2-1/2 inches overall length, the tool fits standard reach applications without unnecessary extension that would reduce rigidity. Machinists, tool and die makers, and CNC operators working on light-to-medium duty milling tasks will find this a straightforward general-purpose option in the HG-2 line.

Key Features

• Centercutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole
• 2-flute configuration aids chip clearance in slots and pockets
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting and chip evacuation
• Right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute geometry, standard for most milling setups
• Straight cylindrical shank with Weldon flat for positive anti-pullout retention
• Uncoated high speed steel construction suited for general-purpose milling applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard end mill holders and collet systems accepting a 3/8-inch shank. Rated for milling cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel workpiece materials per HG-2 series specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the end mill. Torque the set screw against the Weldon flat to the tool holder specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, particularly in precision or finish-milling operations.
