Value Collection 720-1029 Square End Mill 11/32in Hss 2 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-1029 is a single-end, two-flute square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in machine shops and manufacturing environments. Built from M2 high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish, it delivers reliable cutting performance across a range of common workpiece materials. The mill has a 11/32 inch (0.3438 inch) cutting diameter and a 9/16 inch (0.5625 inch) length of cut, making it well suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling tasks. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tool-and-die professionals using standard vertical milling machines or CNC machining centers.

This end mill is appropriate for both conventional and CNC milling applications in job shop and production settings. It is rated for use on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials, covering workpiece material codes P, M, K, and N. The regular-length configuration and fractional inch sizing make it a common choice for shops running inch-based tooling programs. The 30-degree right-hand spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation during standard milling cuts.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for general-purpose cutting durability
• Two right-hand spiral flutes at 30-degree helix angle for effective chip removal
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for use across ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials
• Center-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry into workpieces
• 3/8 inch shank diameter for compatibility with standard collet and end mill holder setups
• Single-end design in regular length for straightforward tool change and setup

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers using fractional inch collet systems or end mill holders with a 3/8 inch bore.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolroom practices. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque to the machine manufacturer's specification before operation. Confirm spindle direction is set to right-hand rotation before engaging the cut. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace tooling that shows signs of damage to avoid workpiece defects or machine harm.
