Hertel E1030132 Square End Mill 1-1/2 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL E1030132 is a 2-flute, square-end, high speed steel end mill designed for milling operations requiring a full-radius corner profile and center-cutting capability. Built to M7 HSS material grade, it delivers reliable performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials across a wide range of machining applications. The cutter runs a 30-degree helix angle with a right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute, promoting chip evacuation and reducing chatter during full-slot or peripheral milling. With a 1.5-inch milling diameter and 1.625-inch length of cut, it suits moderate-depth passes in both manual and CNC setups. Licensed machinists and toolroom operators are the typical users.

This end mill is suited for general-purpose milling in job shops, toolrooms, and production environments. The 1.25-inch shank diameter mates with standard end mill holders, collet chucks, or Weldon-style holders sized for that diameter. The uncoated finish makes it easy to resharpen, and the regular-length geometry keeps deflection manageable during slotting, profiling, and face milling in steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials. It is not suited for hardened steels or high-temperature alloys without appropriate speed and feed reductions.

Key Features

• M7 high speed steel construction for toughness and grindability
• 2-flute design provides chip clearance for slotting and full-width cuts
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and chip flow
• Center-cutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard spindle rotation
• Uncoated finish simplifies resharpening in the field or toolroom

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for standard end mill holders and collet chucks accepting a 1.25-inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with milling operations. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before inserting or removing the end mill from its holder. Verify holder runout with a dial indicator before cutting to protect both the tool and workpiece. Follow machine manufacturer speed and feed guidelines for HSS tooling in the selected workpiece material.
