Hertel E1050015 Square End Mill 15/64 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL E1050015 is a double-end square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in metal, alloy, and ferrous materials. Built from M7 high speed steel, it features a 15/64 inch (0.2344 inch) cutting diameter and a 1/2 inch length of cut, making it well suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling tasks. The 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. With two flutes and a bright, uncoated finish, this tool delivers reliable performance in shops running conventional or CNC milling equipment.

This end mill is used in tool rooms, job shops, and production environments for light-to-medium milling applications. The double-end configuration maximizes tool life by providing two usable cutting ends before the tool is retired. A 3/8 inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders commonly found on knee mills, CNC machining centers, and benchtop milling machines. Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry in addition to side milling.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock end mill for milling applications requiring a 3/8 inch straight shank and a 15/64 inch cutting diameter with a regular length of cut.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Secure the shank firmly in a collet or end mill holder to the appropriate holding depth before operation. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines and shop safety protocols for speeds, feeds, and coolant use.
