Hertel 750696 Solid Carbide Square End Mill 7/32 in

Product Description

The HERTEL 750696 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composites, and similar materials. With a 7/32-inch cutting diameter and a 1/2-inch length of cut (LOC), this single-end tool removes material cleanly at the tip and along the flute. The TiN (titanium nitride) finish improves surface hardness and lubricity, extending tool life in demanding cutting environments. Two spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The 1/4-inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders used across CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in job shops, tool rooms, and production machining environments. Its centercutting geometry allows plunge cuts directly into workpiece material without a pre-drilled entry point, adding versatility to standard milling operations. The right-hand cut direction follows conventional spindle rotation on most vertical milling machines and machining centers. It is a practical choice for machinists working with steel, aluminum, and similar materials at light to moderate depths of cut.

Key Features

• 7/32-inch cutting diameter for small-feature and fine-detail milling
• TiN finish increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge
• 2-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip removal
• Centercutting geometry enables direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Right-hand cut, single-end configuration for use in standard mill setups
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide end mill compatible with 1/4-inch collets and end mill holders on standard vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation of end mills should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolroom practices. Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the collet or set screw is torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification using calibrated tooling. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use.
