Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it offers greater heat and wear resistance than standard M2 HSS, making it suitable for harder ferrous materials and interrupted cuts. The cutting diameter measures 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inches) with a 0.750-inch length of cut, a 0.375-inch (3\/8 inches) shank diameter, and a 2.500-inch overall length. The 30-degree helix and spiral flute geometry promote smooth chip evacuation, while the bright uncoated finish is well suited to applications where coating adhesion or re-sharpening cycles are a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is engineered for milling operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, expanding its usefulness for slot milling, pocketing, and profile work on vertical machining centers, knee mills, and CNC lathes with live tooling. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry follow standard convention for conventional and climb milling setups. It carries the Series SPC408 designation, indicating a short-length configuration within the SECO product line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for improved hardness and heat resistance compared to standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute, spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design permits direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish supports re-sharpening and is compatible with cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle balances cutting force and chip load across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort-length Series SPC408 profile reduces overhang and improves rigidity in tight-clearance setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys (ISO material codes P, M, K, N, and S).

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all motion is locked out before inserting or removing the end mill from the toolholder. Seat the shank to the full recommended grip depth in the collet or end mill holder and verify runout against the 0.0010-inch TIR maximum specification before beginning a cut. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for speed and feed selection based on material and depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.7500 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (2.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42 HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SPC408\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0010 \/ -0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0620 \/ 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17011715\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51561794339122,"sku":"17011715","price":42.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/45e003f1f7c442eaf4a97369cd791473_94cd1f92-6f07-4d00-8df6-cbf79d32103f.jpg?v=1786468862","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17011715-square-end-mill-5-16-in-4-flute-cobalt-spc408","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
