Harvey Tool 72156-C4 Square End Mill 5/32 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 72156-C4 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in demanding machining environments. With a 5/32 inch (0.1562 inch) cutter diameter and a 9/16 inch (0.5620 inch) length of cut, this end mill delivers accurate material removal in tight geometries. The amorphous diamond finish reduces friction and heat buildup at the cutting edge, extending tool life in abrasive or high-speed applications. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tooling professionals working in production and precision job-shop environments.

This end mill is suited for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a small-diameter, short-reach tool is required. The 3/16 inch shank diameter fits standard collet chucks and end mill holders used in vertical machining centers and CNC mills. The 2-flute configuration is well matched to slotting, profiling, and plunge cuts where chip clearance is a priority. With a 2 inch overall length, the tool maintains rigidity while accessing shallow-depth features.

Key Features

• 5/32 inch cutting diameter with 9/16 inch length of cut for small-feature milling
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• Amorphous diamond finish reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle operation

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard collet chucks and end mill holders with a 3/16 inch bore, compatible with vertical machining centers and CNC milling machines accepting that shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully in the collet or holder and verify runout before beginning a cut. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut appropriate to the workpiece material and tool diameter.
