Hertel E599924690 Square End Mill 0.5512 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E599924690 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this two-flute tool delivers a 0.5512-inch cutting diameter with a 1.2598-inch length of cut, making it well-suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling. The 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. The uncoated finish is appropriate for applications where coating is not required or where re-sharpening is anticipated. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop settings.

This end mill is intended for use in vertical machining centers, CNC milling machines, and manual knee mills where a right-hand cutting, centercutting tool is required. The regular-length configuration and 0.5512-inch shank diameter suit standard ER and milling collet setups. Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material without pre-drilling. The two-flute geometry provides chip clearance suited to softer metals and non-ferrous materials, as well as general-purpose steel milling at appropriate feed and speed parameters.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for wear resistance and dimensional stability
• 0.5512-inch cutting diameter with 1.2598-inch length of cut
• Two-flute design promotes chip clearance in slotting and profiling operations
• 30-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without pre-drilling
• Right-hand cut, uncoated, with no chipbreaker or variable helix

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for CNC and manual milling machines accepting a 0.5512-inch shank diameter end mill in ER collets or standard milling holders.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator with the machine in a fully stopped and locked-out state before tool changes. Verify collet size matches the 0.5512-inch shank diameter before seating the tool. Ensure proper runout is confirmed with a dial indicator after clamping before initiating a cut. Consult machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when establishing feed rates and spindle speeds for the target workpiece material.
