Built from solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required for demanding cutting conditions. The 0.625-inch diameter cutting end pairs with a 3-inch length of cut (LOC), giving machinists substantial reach for deep-cavity work. With a 30-degree helix angle and right-hand flute direction, chip evacuation stays consistent across a wide range of feed rates. This tool is installed and used by CNC machinists and toolroom operators in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe E5018040 suits milling centers and CNC machining cells running ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces where a ball-nose profile is required. Its 6-inch overall length (OAL) accommodates extended-reach setups without requiring a specialty holder. The 5\/8-inch shank diameter fits standard ER and side-lock collet systems. Because the tool is uncoated, it is well-suited for operations where coatings may be cost-prohibitive or where re-grinding is part of the shop workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for superior rigidity and wear resistance versus high-speed steel alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.625-inch ball-nose diameter for accurate contour and 3D profiling cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch length of cut supports deep-cavity and stepped-surface milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip flow and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish allows for straightforward re-grinding and cost-effective tool management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid carbide ball end mill compatible with standard 5\/8-inch ER collet chucks, side-lock holders, and shrink-fit tooling systems used on CNC vertical and horizontal machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's tooling and runout specifications. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing or seating the tool. Verify collet condition and holder cleanliness before clamping to avoid runout that can damage the cutting edge. Consult the machine's programming documentation for appropriate speeds and feeds based on workpiece material and depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.69 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: E5018040\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755747705138,"sku":"E5018040","price":264.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3ed0e406873d625fc239298189a46a5d.jpg?v=1788959085","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-e5018040-ball-end-mill-0-625-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
