Built from micrograin solid carbide and finished with a TiN coating, this tool delivers the wear resistance and edge retention needed for production cutting environments. The 1\/4 inch diameter, 4-flute chipbreaker geometry breaks chips into shorter segments, reducing heat buildup and improving evacuation during high-feed passes. At 1.125 inches length of cut and 3 inches overall length, it fits standard toolholders used on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for this configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for roughing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both job shop and production environments. The chipbreaker profile makes it particularly effective in materials that produce long, stringy chips, such as low-carbon steels and aluminum alloys. The centercutting design allows for plunge entry as well as conventional and climb milling paths. It is a regular-length tool appropriate for general-purpose setups where extended reach is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for high hardness and fracture resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChipbreaker geometry controls chip length and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting capable — supports direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute, right-hand cut with right-hand flute direction for standard toolpath compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShank diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to -0.0004 inches for consistent tool holder fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or standard selection for 1\/4 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and hydraulic toolholders used on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines requiring a 1\/4 inch shank single-end roughing end mill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Clean the toolholder bore and shank before seating to prevent runout caused by debris. Confirm runout with a dial indicator after tightening to manufacturer toolholder torque specifications before beginning a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\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: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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\u003eChipbreaker\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0001 to -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.09 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: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2500498\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730849628466,"sku":"2500498","price":360.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/edc5e52c19436f1d2652c961c12dbde6.jpg?v=1788723840","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-2500498-roughing-end-mill-1-4-in-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
