Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it offers improved heat and wear resistance compared to standard M2 HSS tooling. The 0.250-inch cutting diameter pairs with a 1.250-inch length of cut, making it well-suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling where a longer reach is required. The 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. This end mill is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry into workpiece material without a pre-drilled start hole. It is intended for installation and use by machinists and toolroom professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits standard CNC machining centers, knee mills, and manual milling machines with an ER or collet chuck sized for a 0.375-inch shank diameter. The long-length configuration, with a 3.0625-inch overall length, provides additional clearance when milling deep pockets, shoulders, or stepped features. It is particularly useful in job shop and production environments where cobalt tooling is specified for cutting alloy steels, stainless steels, and similar difficult-to-machine materials without the need for carbide. The uncoated finish makes it straightforward to resharpen on a standard tool-and-cutter grinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry balances chip clearance and rigidity for slotting and profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand spiral flute promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-length series 536 provides additional reach for deep-feature milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish supports field resharpening on standard tool-and-cutter grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in milling machines and machining centers equipped with a 0.375-inch collet or chuck.

Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked before changing tooling. Inspect the shank and collet bore for chips or debris before seating the tool. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation require conventional spindle rotation for proper cutting action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.250 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.250 inches (1-1\/4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0625 inches (3-1\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42 HSS)\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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 536\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\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: 5360300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738581565746,"sku":"5360300","price":74.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9ec13041b044c78197facd9f85a8ce14.jpg?v=1788801306","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-5360300-square-end-mill-1-4-in-3-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
