Ground from M2 high speed steel and left uncoated (bright finish), it measures 0.125 inches in cutting diameter with a 0.1875-inch length of cut and a matching 0.1875-inch shank diameter. The 2-inch overall length places it in the stub category. With two spiral flutes at a 30-degree helix angle and right-hand cut and flute direction, it provides efficient chip evacuation and a clean square shoulder in ferrous materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for light to medium milling passes in ferrous and high-temp alloy workpieces including steel (ISO P), stainless steel (ISO M), cast iron (ISO K), and high-temperature alloys (ISO S). The double-end configuration extends tool life by offering a second usable cutting end, making it a practical choice for high-volume production runs or cost-conscious job shops. The stub length and 0.125-inch diameter make it appropriate for slots, pockets, and profiling cuts where rigidity and minimal overhang are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-end design provides two cutting ends per tool, extending service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction suitable for ferrous and high-temp alloy machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle on spiral flutes promotes smooth chip flow and reduced chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation compatible with standard CNC and manual mill setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish maintains sharp edge geometry without coating buildup concerns on HSS substrate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for milling applications requiring a 0.125-inch diameter, 0.1875-inch shank, double-end square end mill in high speed steel.

Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or end mill holder and tighten to the machine manufacturer's specified torque using the appropriate wrench — do not use excessive force on small-diameter shanks, as distortion can affect runout. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, and use appropriate cutting speeds and feed rates for M2 HSS in the target workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel, M2 Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, High-Temperature Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCCCDE-HSS-2-30H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fractional Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 720-1612\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690353656114,"sku":"720-1612","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7e0ca3bb3cef692d15a2388b2577dbf3.jpg?v=1788269315","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-720-1612-square-end-mill-1-8-in-2-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
