Built to M42 cobalt high-speed steel specification, it delivers improved heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling. The cutter features a 2-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 30-degree helix angle, a 0.5-inch cutting diameter, and a 1-inch length of cut. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry directly into the workpiece. Licensed machinists and toolroom operators use this end mill in vertical and horizontal milling machines as well as machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OSG 5271100 is suited for slotting, peripheral milling, and plunge cutting in both manual and CNC applications. The 2-flute design provides generous chip clearance, making it a practical choice for softer steels, aluminum, and general ferrous stock where chip evacuation is a priority. The 0.5-inch shank diameter fits standard ER and end mill holders with 1\/2-inch bore. The Series 527 designation places this tool in OSG's regular-length, uncoated cobalt line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for improved heat resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral configuration promotes efficient chip evacuation in slotting cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix angle balances cutting action and tool stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry enables direct plunge milling without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluid in ferrous applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended reach design with 2.25-inch reach length for deeper cavity access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/2-inch bore end mill holders, ER32 collet chucks, and similar toolholding systems on vertical mills and CNC machining centers.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing tooling. Secure the shank to the full recommended engagement depth in the holder and torque set screws per the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before taking the first cut, and apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 527\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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5271100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51745967702322,"sku":"5271100","price":77.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d37621b182d15362700b58fbce48149e.jpg?v=1788866130","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-5271100-square-end-mill-0-5-in-2-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
