Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, it delivers elevated heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling. The coarse-pitch, 3-flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation during heavy cuts. With a 0.25-inch mill diameter and a 0.3125-inch length of cut, this end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and roughing passes where fast stock removal is the priority. It measures 2.125 inches in overall length and weighs approximately 0.011 pounds. Installation and use require a compatible 0.375-inch shank holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, knee mills, and manual milling machines where roughing operations are performed on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Its right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction make it compatible with standard spindle configurations. The coarse pitch helps reduce chatter and loading during interrupted cuts or when milling harder alloys. It is a single-end tool, meaning it is not reversible, and is sized for light-duty to medium-duty milling setups common in job shops and maintenance machining environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt steel construction for improved heat resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium Nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute coarse-pitch geometry promotes chip clearing during roughing cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand helix for use with standard milling spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.375-inch shank diameter fits common collet and end mill holder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-center-cutting design — requires a pre-drilled or pre-bored entry point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit roughing end mill for any milling machine or machining center equipped with a 0.375-inch end mill holder, collet chuck, or Weldon-style holder accepting a 0.25-inch diameter single-end tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is installed by machinists into a compatible 0.375-inch shank holder; ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Confirm runout with a dial indicator after seating the tool to avoid premature wear or dimensional error. Because this is a non-center-cutting end mill, do not plunge directly into solid material — use a ramping or helical entry path, or begin from an existing bore or slot edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (1\/4 inch)\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: Cobalt (M42 HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches (2-1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\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: No\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\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00394 \/ -0.00197 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.66 x 0.59 x 0.51 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.011 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 44839173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730566316338,"sku":"44839173","price":53.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aeb98db95d248c92e7fde30b71d2513a.jpg?v=1788719661","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-44839173-roughing-end-mill-1-4-in-3-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
