Built on OSG's VGM7 platform, it features a 3\/8 inch mill diameter, a 0.02 inch corner radius, and a 9\/16 inch length of cut. The EXO coating provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability, making this tool well suited for demanding cuts in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials. The close pitch, right-hand spiral flute geometry and variable index design help reduce chatter and improve surface finish consistency at the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for finishing passes in CNC machining centers and milling operations where tight tolerances and surface quality are the priority. The short length type and straight cylindrical shank keep deflection low during lateral cuts. The VGM7-0042 is appropriate for job shops, tool rooms, and production environments running P, M, K, S, and H material groups. It seats in a standard toolholder and is a single-end tool, so it is replaced rather than reground when the cutting edges are spent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7-flute close-pitch geometry for improved surface finish and feed-rate capability in finishing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEXO coating for extended tool life in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.02 inch corner radius reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge and minimizes chipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable index flute spacing dampens vibration and chatter during cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides rigidity and dimensional stability in demanding cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute spiral with medium helix style for balanced chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard toolholders accepting a 3\/8 inch straight cylindrical shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Verify runout at the toolholder before cutting to stay within the mill diameter tolerance of 0.0000 to -0.0011 inches. The shank diameter is held to h6 tolerance, so select a collet or end mill holder rated for that fit class to maintain concentricity.\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\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0000 to -0.0011 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: EXO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys, Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: VGM7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VGM7-0042\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754528866610,"sku":"VGM7-0042","price":86.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d76d3b2ee379b3fe71cfda3fdd1afb52_7d22cbf9-a364-42f8-aad6-e56448ce0243.jpg?v=1788946331","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-vgm7-0042-corner-radius-end-mill-3-8-in-7-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
