Hertel 750660 Square End Mill 5/32 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 750660 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precise milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. With a 5/32 inch (0.1563 inch) cutting diameter and a 9/16 inch length of cut, this two-flute end mill handles slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 30-degree spiral helix and TiN (titanium nitride) finish support efficient chip evacuation and extend tool life in demanding cutting environments. Installed by machinists and CNC operators, this tool fits standard tool holders accepting a 3/16 inch shank.

This end mill is suited for light to medium milling work in job shops, toolrooms, and production machining environments. The centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into workpieces without a pre-drilled hole, making it versatile for pocket milling and ramp entry operations. The right-hand cutting direction and spiral flute configuration are standard for the majority of vertical machining center and manual mill setups. Its compact 2 inch overall length makes it a practical choice for short-reach applications where rigidity is a priority.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in high-speed cutting
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge milling without pre-drilling
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip flow and reduced cutting forces
• Two-flute geometry provides chip clearance in slotting and pocket operations
• Right-hand spiral flute, standard for conventional and climb milling setups

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard tool holders and collet systems accepting a 3/16 inch shank diameter. Suitable for vertical machining centers, CNC mills, and manual knee mills configured for right-hand tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Secure the shank fully within the collet or end mill holder to the manufacturer-recommended engagement depth to prevent pullout under cutting loads. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are set appropriately for the workpiece material and cutting diameter before engaging the cut.
