Value Collection 182-6668 Corner Rounding End Mill

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 182-6668 is a single-end corner rounding end mill designed to machine radius profiles on workpiece edges. Built from M2 high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it features a 1/8 inch corner radius and a 5/8 inch cutting diameter. The 4-flute, right-hand cutting geometry provides smooth chip evacuation and consistent edge quality on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 3/8 inch shank diameter and 3 inch overall length, this tool fits standard milling machine and machining center collets used by machinists in production and job shop environments.

This end mill is suited for milling operations that require a defined corner radius on edges, slots, or shoulders. Typical applications include deburring sharp corners, producing decorative profiles, and preparing mating surfaces that require a radiused edge for fit or fatigue resistance. The single-end configuration keeps the tool compact for standard vertical milling setups. It is used in general metalworking shops on manual knee mills and CNC machining centers alike.

Key Features

• 1/8 inch corner radius for precise edge profiling
• M2 high speed steel construction for durability across a range of work materials
• 4-flute, right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction for efficient chip removal
• Bright uncoated finish — suitable for use with cutting fluid or dry
• 3/8 inch shank diameter fits standard ER and straight-bore collet systems
• Single-end design with 3 inch overall length for compact tool overhang

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard toolroom addition for milling machines and machining centers accepting a 3/8 inch shank collet or end mill holder.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or removing the tool from the holder. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening to the machine manufacturer's specified torque. Verify workpiece fixturing and tool runout before initiating a cut to avoid premature tool wear or breakage.
