Value Collection 32061 Square End Mill 1/16 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32061 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin carbide, it delivers the hardness and edge retention needed for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The mill measures 0.0625 inches (1/16 inch) in diameter with a 0.25-inch length of cut and a 30-degree helix angle. Its bright, uncoated finish makes it well suited for general-purpose milling where coating is not required. Centercutting capability allows it to plunge directly into workpiece material. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this style of end mill for slotting, profiling, and contouring operations in close-tolerance work.

This end mill is sized for fine detail work, making it a common choice in mold making, die work, and precision part production. The 1/8-inch shank diameter fits standard collets used on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The 1.5-inch overall length keeps the tool rigid at this small diameter, reducing deflection during cutting. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard configurations compatible with conventional milling machine spindle rotation.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for hardness and edge retention
• 0.0625-inch (1/16 inch) mill diameter for fine detail and small-feature machining
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into material
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose applications
• Two-flute geometry provides chip clearance in slot milling operations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or supplemental tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with 1/8-inch collets or collet chucks accepting a square shank profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom professional. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet and tighten to the collet manufacturer's specified holding method before operation. At this small diameter, minimize overhang and use conservative feed and speed settings to reduce risk of tool breakage.
