Hertel E8050064 Square End Mill 1 in 2 Flute Hss Tin

Product Description

The HERTEL E8050064 is a double-end square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. Built from M7 high speed steel with a titanium nitride (TiN) finish, this tool delivers solid wear resistance and extended cutting life compared to uncoated HSS tooling. It features a 1 inch cutting diameter, a 1-5/8 inch length of cut, and a 30-degree spiral helix angle. The centercutting geometry allows plunge milling in addition to peripheral and slot milling. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this end mill in manual knee mills, CNC machining centers, and bridgeport-style mills running ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This end mill suits production and job-shop environments where a reliable, cost-effective HSS cutter is preferred over carbide for interrupted cuts or flexible setups. The double-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life per unit. The 1 inch shank diameter is compatible with standard R8, CAT, BT, and straight-bore collet systems commonly found in vertical milling machines. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry follow the most common spindle-rotation convention, reducing setup confusion in multi-machine shops.

Key Features

• Double-end design with two usable 1 inch cutting ends for extended tool life
• M7 high speed steel construction with TiN coating for improved wear resistance
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flute geometry for smooth chip evacuation
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard spindle operation
• Regular length profile balances rigidity and reach in typical milling fixtures

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or direct-use cutting tool for vertical and horizontal milling machines accepting a 1 inch straight shank. No specific model compatibility data was provided by the manufacturer for this SKU.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes must be performed with the machine powered off and the spindle fully stopped. A licensed machinist or qualified shop technician should secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder torqued per the machine manufacturer's specifications. Inspect the collet bore and shank for chips or damage before seating the tool. Observe applicable shop safety codes and machine guarding requirements during setup and operation.
