Built from micrograin carbide and coated with Titanium Nitride (TiN), it delivers hard, wear-resistant cutting edges suited to ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The 0.5 inch diameter cutter features a 1 inch length of cut, a 30-degree right-hand helix, and a 2-flute spiral geometry that promotes chip evacuation in slotting and profiling cuts. Overall length is 2.5 inches with a 0.5 inch straight shank. This end mill is a single-end, center-cutting tool, meaning it can be used for plunge entry as well as peripheral and face milling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in vertical machining centers, manual knee mills, and CNC milling setups for finish and semi-finish passes on aluminum, steel, stainless, and similar materials. The 2-flute layout is particularly well-suited for aluminum and softer alloys where chip clearance is critical. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional and climb milling on most general-purpose machines. Machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC programmers working in job shops, maintenance machining, and production environments will find this a reliable general-purpose cutter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN (Titanium Nitride) coating reduces friction and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral geometry promotes chip evacuation in slotting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix for smooth cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with 0.5 inch straight shank for standard collet or end mill holder fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 0.5 inch end mill holders, ER collet chucks, or Weldon-style side-lock holders on vertical machining centers and manual mills.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of chips before seating the shank. Torque the set screw or collet nut to the tool holder manufacturer specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning the cut, as excessive runout will accelerate edge wear on carbide tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\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\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.26 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: 74611500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743957352754,"sku":"74611500","price":157.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c9c9a21a73df7c20c90a546e52854332.jpg?v=1788851928","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-74611500-square-end-mill-0-5-in-2-flute-carbide-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
