It measures 7\/16 inches (0.4375 inches) in cutting diameter with a 13\/16 inches (0.8125 inches) length of cut and a 1\/2 inches shank diameter. The bright, uncoated finish is standard for M2 HSS tooling. A 30-degree right-hand helix promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining edge strength. Center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry as well as peripheral and slot milling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits standard milling operations in job shops, maintenance environments, and production settings where HSS tooling is specified. The double-end configuration extends tool life by providing a second usable cutting end. At 3-3\/4 inches overall length with a regular length classification, it seats properly in standard milling chucks, collets, and end mill holders across vertical knee mills, CNC machining centers, and manual milling machines. It is suited for cutting steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temp alloys in light-to-medium-duty applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction balances toughness and wear resistance across ferrous and high-temp alloy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand spiral flutes promote efficient chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting geometry enables plunge milling as well as side and slot milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — no coating to delaminate; suitable for re-sharpening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-flute configuration provides larger chip gullets for better clearance in softer steels and slotting cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard end mill holders, collet chucks, and milling chucks accepting a 1\/2 inches shank diameter.

Secure the shank fully within the holder to the minimum insertion depth recommended by the holder manufacturer, ensuring no less than 3 times the shank diameter of engagement. Confirm spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and cutting diameter before engaging the cut. Inspect both cutting ends for edge integrity before use and between tool changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches (0.4375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 inches (0.8125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-3\/4 inches (3.7500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches (0.5000 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 Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, High-Temp Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCCCDE-HSS-2-30H\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: 720-2048\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51708706783538,"sku":"720-2048","price":54.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3b95dbb796694d35ec7c0090b5ed1a2d.jpg?v=1788447932","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-720-2048-square-end-mill-7-16-in-2-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
