It features a 3\/8 inch cutting diameter, a 7\/8 inch length of cut, and a 3\/8 inch shank diameter, with an overall length of 2-1\/2 inches. The 3-flute, single-end geometry with a 45-degree high helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The uncoated carbide construction delivers rigidity and edge retention in general-purpose milling applications. This tool is installed by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working in CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in a range of materials including aluminum, steel, and plastics. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, giving machinists flexibility in toolpath programming. The right-hand cut and right-hand helical flute configuration is standard for conventional CNC spindle operation. It fits common 3\/8 inch collet and end mill holder systems used in vertical and horizontal machining centers across job shops, production facilities, and maintenance machining environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch cutting diameter with 7\/8 inch length of cut for precise material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry balances chip evacuation with cutting stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree high helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction — compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for general-purpose milling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 3\/8 inch collet chucks, shrink-fit holders, and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills.
