Ground from high speed steel (HSS) stock and finished with a titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating, this tool delivers improved surface hardness and wear resistance over uncoated HSS. The cutting diameter is 0.25 inches with a 0.5-inch length of cut, a 0.375-inch shank diameter, and a 2.4375-inch overall length. The 30-degree right-hand spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup at the cutting edge. Centercutting capability allows this mill to plunge directly into workpiece material without a pre-drilled entry hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for light to medium milling work on manual mills, CNC machining centers, and knee mills running moderate spindle speeds. Typical applications include slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in steel, stainless, aluminum, and similar materials. The 3\/8-inch shank fits standard ER collet chucks, end mill holders, and Weldon-style holders commonly found in job shops, maintenance shops, and tool rooms. The small cutting diameter and short length of cut make it well suited for detail work, keyway cutting, and close-tolerance slot machining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life compared to bare HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute design provides chip clearance in slotting and full-width cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without pilot drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch shank fits widely available collet and end mill holder tooling\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 collet chucks, end mill holders, and Weldon-style tool holders used on conventional and CNC milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician using an appropriate collet chuck or end mill holder torqued to the machine tool manufacturer's specification. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down or placed in E-stop before changing tooling. Check runout at the cutting diameter after installation to confirm proper seating in the holder. Do not exceed the tool's rated length of cut when taking full-depth passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (1\/4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (1\/2 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4375 inches (2-7\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\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\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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\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: EF99921263\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755333189938,"sku":"EF99921263","price":33.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e474e5c9ad5c1653c531b0c315e18e80.jpg?v=1788953808","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-ef99921263-square-end-mill-1-4-in-2-flute-hss-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
