Hertel E5022012 Square End Mill 3/16 Inch 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E5022012 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision material removal in milling operations. This double-end tool features a 3/16 inch cutting diameter, a 3/8 inch length of cut, and a 2 inch overall length, making it well suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in tight workspaces. The 30-degree spiral helix promotes efficient chip evacuation, and the centercutting geometry allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole. With two flutes and an uncoated carbide substrate, this end mill is built for use in ferrous and non-ferrous applications where dimensional precision is the priority. Typically installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers in job shop and production environments.

This end mill is a fit for CNC machining centers, manual mills, and die-mold work where a small-diameter, short-flute tool is required. The 3/16 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter for direct collet or end mill holder mounting without a reducer. Its right-hand cut orientation is standard for conventional and climb milling operations on most vertical and horizontal mill setups. The double-end configuration extends tool life by providing a second usable cutting end.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision milling
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flute geometry for effective chip evacuation
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece
• Right-hand cut direction compatible with standard spindle rotation
• Uncoated finish suitable for a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for standard 3/16 inch collets and end mill holders used in CNC and manual milling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Secure the shank fully within the collet or end mill holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Verify spindle direction is set to right-hand rotation prior to operation. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use and replace if damage is present.
