Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers heat resistance and edge retention that standard HSS tooling cannot match. The 1\/2 inch diameter, 4-flute spiral configuration with a 30-degree maximum helix angle produces a shearing cut that reduces chatter and extends tool life during roughing passes. With a 1.25 inch length of cut and 3.25 inch overall length, this is a regular-length tool suited for general-purpose rough milling work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in job shops, production floors, and maintenance machining environments where steel, stainless, and tough alloys are the primary workpiece materials. The bright\/uncoated finish makes it a reliable choice when coolant is applied externally. It is not center-cutting, so it requires a pre-drilled entry point or ramping moves for plunge operations. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional vertical and horizontal milling setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for elevated heat resistance and hardness retention during heavy roughing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and minimizes vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch diameter with 1.25 inch length of cut for material removal in tight or open pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish compatible with flood coolant and general roughing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end tool with right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard mill setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular length series REM445 for balanced rigidity and reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style roughing end mill in the SECO REM445 series, compatible with standard 1\/2 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and milling machine spindles accepting a 1\/2 inch straight shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before loading or unloading the tool. Seat the shank fully in the holder and torque the retention fastener per the tool holder manufacturer specification. Because this tool is not center-cutting, avoid direct axial plunging into solid material without a pre-drilled hole or programmed ramp entry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Helix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: REM445\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.003 to -0.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.062 to -0.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17010373\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563456758066,"sku":"17010373","price":82.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bc02fbdd14cb29a2ef9705c81c46f6d9_c9a66079-7e5a-40bb-bda0-8ebeb71c76f3.jpg?v=1786498050","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17010373-roughing-end-mill-1-2-in-4-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
