Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it carries a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating that extends tool life and reduces heat buildup at the cutting edge. The 30-degree spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. At 5\/16 inch in diameter with a stub length of cut, this end mill is suited for light-to-moderate slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations where rigidity and accuracy are priorities. It is centercutting-capable, allowing plunge cuts into workpiece material. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is rated for use on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys, covering ISO material groups P, M, K, N, and S. The stub LOC of 5\/16 inch minimizes deflection during aggressive cuts in harder materials. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration make it compatible with standard spindle rotation on vertical and horizontal milling machines, CNC machining centers, and manual knee mills. It is part of the SPC408 series and ships individually as a single-unit package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for elevated heat and wear resistance versus standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous and high-temp alloy cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces chatter during milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute for standard spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub length of cut maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection in tight setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the SECO SPC408 series. Designed for use in standard end mill holders, collet chucks, and shrink-fit toolholders accepting a 3\/8 inch shank diameter.

Ensure the shank is clean and free of burrs before seating in the toolholder; proper seating depth prevents pullout under cutting loads. Verify runout after installation using a dial indicator — the maximum TIR for this tool is 0.0010 inch. Consult the machine manufacturer and applicable shop safety standards for recommended speeds, feeds, and coolant practice for the target workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/16 inches (2.0625 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)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0030 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\u003eMaximum TIR\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SPC408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 17016946\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558693044530,"sku":"17016946","price":43.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/45e003f1f7c442eaf4a97369cd791473_1c546bab-7a84-4079-8fb5-4c6e724b5bbe.jpg?v=1786418167","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17016946-square-end-mill-5-16-in-4-flute-cobalt-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
