With a 0.5-inch mill diameter and a 3\/4-inch length of cut, this single-end tool delivers controlled material removal across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The 3-flute geometry with a 42-degree variable helix angle balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality, making it well-suited for both slotting and peripheral milling. The bright uncoated finish is standard for carbide tools run at moderate speeds or in materials where coating adhesion is less critical. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary installers and users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use in vertical machining centers, CNC milling machines, and manual knee mills where a 1\/2-inch shank diameter collet or end mill holder is available. It is applicable to production shops, toolrooms, and job shops performing contouring, pocketing, and profiling operations. The 3-inch overall length provides adequate reach for standard depth applications without introducing excessive overhang deflection. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional CNC spindle rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in demanding milling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e42-degree variable helix reduces harmonics and chatter during cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute design balances chip load per tooth with evacuation efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting capability allows plunge entry into workpiece material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose and aluminum milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in any CNC or manual milling machine equipped with a 1\/2-inch collet, shrink-fit holder, or end mill holder accepting a 0.5-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall into a clean, properly sized 1\/2-inch collet or toolholder and torque the retention mechanism to the machine or toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the shank and collet bore for chips or contamination before seating the tool. Confirm spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and depth of cut before engaging the tool. Never exceed the tool's rated length of cut range when programming axial depth passes.\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: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: 42 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: HARVEY TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 968832\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730151899442,"sku":"968832","price":84.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/15f0b69b18571c434ab711846c94a738_1de3655a-937b-4cb9-a1b1-18d7480f9768.jpg?v=1788712631","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-968832-square-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
