Hertel E1036056 Square End Mill 7/8 in 6 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL E1036056 is a 6-flute square end mill manufactured from M7 high speed steel, designed for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features a 7/8 inch cutting diameter, a 5 inch length of cut, and a 7-1/4 inch overall length. The 30-degree spiral helix promotes efficient chip evacuation across the full length of cut. This is a single-end, uncoated tool with right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation. It is installed and used by machinists and toolroom technicians in manual mills, CNC machining centers, and knee mills for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling applications.

The E1036056 is suited for general-purpose milling in production and job-shop environments. Its 5 inch length of cut supports deeper pocket milling and extended-reach applications where shorter tooling cannot reach. The 7/8 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, allowing direct clamping in standard ER or side-lock holders of the appropriate bore. It is not center-cutting, so it requires a pre-drilled entry hole or helical interpolation when plunging into solid material.

Key Features

• 6-flute geometry increases feed rate capability and improves finish quality compared to 4-flute tools
• M7 high speed steel construction provides toughness and wear resistance for interrupted cuts and general-purpose milling
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and effective chip evacuation
• 5 inch length of cut supports deep pocket and extended-reach milling setups
• Right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute — standard orientation for conventional milling setups
• Uncoated finish — compatible with regrinding services and suitable for use with cutting fluids

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose square end mill for use in standard 7/8 inch bore end mill holders, collet chucks, and side-lock holders on manual or CNC milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Ensure the milling machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the holder and verify runout with a dial indicator before engaging the cut. Because this tool is not center-cutting, do not plunge directly into solid material — use a pre-drilled hole or a programmed helical entry path.
