Ground from M2 high speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, this tool offers a 5\/16-inch cutting diameter and a 3\/4-inch length of cut. The 2-flute spiral geometry provides efficient chip evacuation and is well suited for profiling, plunge cuts, and finish passes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction follow standard conventions for most vertical and horizontal milling setups. Machinists, tool and die makers, and general machine shop operators are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in standard milling machine and CNC machining center applications where a ball nose profile is required to produce radii, fillets, and complex contoured geometry. The 3\/8-inch shank diameter fits common R8, ER, and side-lock toolholders found in most shop environments. The standard-length OAL of 2-1\/2 inches keeps the tool rigid and minimizes deflection during light-to-medium material removal on steel, aluminum, brass, and similar workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16-inch ball nose cutting diameter for profiling radii and contoured surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction provides good wear resistance and toughness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral design promotes chip flow and suits slotting and profiling cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand helix for use with standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — suitable for general-purpose machining without added coating cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with 3\/8-inch straight shank for broad toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production ball end mill for milling machines and CNC machining centers accepting a 3\/8-inch shank diameter toolholder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down or placed in an E-stop state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder and verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut. Follow the machine manufacturer's recommended clamping torque for the specific toolholder type in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (M2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: 720-1407\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692784320818,"sku":"720-1407","price":38.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c4d03c6746e6fa667199c01a12ab3de1.jpg?v=1788302847","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-720-1407-ball-end-mill-5-16-in-2-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
