Hertel E1050060 Square End Mill 15/16 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL E1050060 is a double-end, square-profile end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It is ground from high speed steel (HSS) stock and left uncoated, making it a cost-effective choice for shops running conventional milling or manual machines. The cutter measures 15/16 inches in diameter with a 1-5/8 inch length of cut, a 1 inch shank diameter, and an overall length of 5-7/8 inches. With 2 spiral flutes and a right-hand cut with right-hand flute direction, this end mill is suited for standard slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling tasks performed by machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople.

This end mill fits conventional milling machines, knee mills, and CNC machining centers where a 1 inch straight shank is accepted. The double-end configuration extends tool life by providing a second cutting end when the first shows wear. The centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece without a pre-drilled hole. Typical applications include slot milling, shoulder milling, and step machining in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials encountered in job shop and maintenance machining environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician using a standard end mill holder, collet chuck, or Weldon-style side-lock holder sized for a 1 inch shank. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before loading or removing the tool. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before commencing a cut. Follow shop safety protocols and machine manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate selection appropriate to the workpiece material.
