The toolholder accepts replaceable inserts secured by screw clamping, making it a practical choice for production environments where insert indexing speed matters. With a 2.5-inch cutting diameter and a maximum depth of cut of 0.656 inches, this tool is suited for face milling, shoulder milling, and step milling on ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. The R8 shank mounts directly into Bridgeport-style vertical milling machines and compatible R8 spindle tapers. Four insert pockets provide balanced cutting action across the full diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in job shop and production machining environments on manual vertical mills and compatible CNC knee mills equipped with an R8 spindle. Typical applications include shoulder profiling, face cleanup passes, and step milling on steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces. The TPG toolholder style and screw-lock insert retention make it straightforward to index or swap worn inserts at the machine without removing the body from the spindle. The 5-37\/64-inch overall length provides adequate reach for most standard setups without excessive overhang.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.5-inch cutting diameter for wide-engagement shoulder and face milling passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut of 0.656 inches per pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eR8 shank for direct mounting in Bridgeport-style and compatible R8-spindle machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute, 4-insert design with screw-lock insert retention for secure clamping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with TPC 32, TPG 32, and TPU 32 insert styles for flexible tooling inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through — external flood or mist coolant applies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eUses TPC 32, TPG 32, and TPU 32 insert styles.

Secure the R8 shank in the spindle draw bar and torque per the machine manufacturer's specification before operation. Power down the machine and lock out the spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Inspect insert seating and screw torque at each insert change to prevent insert movement during cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.656 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-37\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5156 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: R8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutter Inserts\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPC 32, TPG 32, TPU 32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.92 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-901-535\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709185655090,"sku":"6-901-535","price":838.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e201be2e74adb5facf2f2a150ba47674.jpg?v=1788452530","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-6-901-535-square-shoulder-end-mill-r8","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
