Hertel E1030064 Square End Mill 1 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL E1030064 is a single-end, square-profile end mill designed for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Built from M7 high speed steel, the tool runs uncoated and is suited for general-purpose slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling. The 1 inch cutting diameter pairs with a 30-degree helix angle to support efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. With a 1-5/8 inch length of cut and a standard 1 inch shank, the E1030064 fits common milling machine and machining center toolholders. Two flutes provide the chip clearance needed for softer materials and moderate material removal rates. It is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry into the workpiece.

This end mill is intended for use in manual knee mills, CNC vertical machining centers, and bridgeport-style machines where a 1 inch straight shank toolholder is used. The right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute configuration is the standard orientation for conventional milling setups. It is appropriate for job shops, maintenance machining, and production environments where an uncoated HSS end mill is preferred over carbide for cost, regrindability, or material compatibility reasons.

Key Features

• M7 high speed steel construction for toughness and regrindability
• 2-flute design maximizes chip clearance in softer and gummy materials
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and chip evacuation
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without a pre-drilled entry hole
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute for use in standard milling setups
• Uncoated finish maintains sharpness in applications where coatings are not required

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1 inch shank square end mill compatible with 1 inch straight-shank milling toolholders used in vertical machining centers and manual knee mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder and tighten set screws or collet nuts to the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning the cut, as excessive runout will accelerate wear and degrade surface finish.
