Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating, this 2-flute tool offers a 3\/8 inch cutting diameter and a 1-1\/2 inch length of cut. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. With a centercutting design, it is capable of plunge cutting in addition to peripheral and slot milling. Machinists and tool and die professionals working on CNC mills, knee mills, or manual milling machines are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for use on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a standard 2-flute geometry is preferred for better chip clearance, particularly in slotting and profiling applications. The 3\/8 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, making it compatible with standard ER collet chucks, side-lock holders, and shrink-fit toolholders of the same bore size. The TiCN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction compared to uncoated HSS, extending tool life in moderate-production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch cutting diameter with matching 3\/8 inch shank for straightforward toolholder setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating improves wear resistance and heat tolerance over uncoated HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral design provides maximum chip clearance for slotting operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix with right-hand cutting direction for conventional milling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/4 inch overall length provides adequate reach for standard milling fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 3\/8 inch shank square end mill compatible with ER collets, set-screw holders, and shrink-fit toolholders bored to 3\/8 inch.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before inserting or removing the end mill from the toolholder. Verify that the shank is fully seated and the toolholder is torqued to the manufacturer's specification for the holder type in use. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use, and do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the material and machine rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 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\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (1.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/4 inches (3.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches x 0.75 inches x 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: EF080024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730757189938,"sku":"EF080024","price":49.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/537ee10b3a2fc6b938074ef1bb7ffa3e.jpg?v=1788722336","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-ef080024-square-end-mill-3-8-in-2-flute-hss-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
