Built from solid carbide in ROBBJACK's Super Tuffy material grade, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance required for high-feed roughing passes. The cutter measures 0.5 inches in diameter with a 0.625-inch length of cut and a stub-length overall length of 3 inches. A titanium nitride (TiN) coating adds surface hardness and lubricity, reducing heat buildup and extending tool life in demanding cuts. The fine-pitch, 4-flute geometry and right-hand cutting and flute direction make it a standard choice for machinists running production roughing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual knee mills where rapid stock removal is the priority before a finishing pass. The stub-length configuration minimizes overhang, improving rigidity and reducing deflection in interrupted cuts or tough materials. The center-cutting design allows plunge entry. It is installed and used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and manufacturing shops working with ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The STR-401 series is a ROBBJACK production line built specifically for high-performance roughing work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide Super Tuffy material grade for hardness and wear resistance in roughing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and heat, extending tool life on production runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute fine-pitch geometry optimized for aggressive stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable, allowing direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length body minimizes deflection and improves rigidity at the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC and manual mill spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit roughing end mill for standard 0.5-inch collets, end mill holders, and hydraulic chucks used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists using an appropriate end mill holder or collet chuck rated for the 0.5-inch shank diameter. Confirm shank seating depth and runout before initiating a cut. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Observe the shank diameter tolerance of -0.0001 to -0.0002 inches when selecting the holder to ensure proper fit and concentricity.\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: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Super Tuffy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\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: 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\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 to -0.0002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.003 to -0.007 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.060 to -0.060 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: STR-401\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 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: ROBBJACK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: STR-401-16-T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROBBJACK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51997681090866,"sku":"STR-401-16-T","price":292.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a21347d8771fbde99f9155c227aa9cea.jpg?v=1789994281","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/robbjack-str-401-16-t-roughing-end-mill-0-5-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
