Value Collection 720-2076 Square End Mill 13/16 in 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The Value Collection 720-2076 is a double-end, square-profile end mill designed for general-purpose milling on manual and CNC machine tools. Manufactured from M2 high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it measures 13/16 inch (0.8125 inch) in cutting diameter with a 1-9/16 inch length of cut and a 7/8 inch shank diameter. Overall length is 5-1/2 inches. The two-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and is centercutting, allowing plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Machinists and tool-and-die trades use this cutter for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations.

This end mill is suited for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life per unit. The regular-length geometry and fractional-inch shank fit standard collet chucks and end mill holders commonly found in job shops and production environments. It is sold individually and carries no minimum order quantity beyond a single piece.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for toughness in ferrous and high-temp alloy applications
• Double-end design delivers two cutting ends per tool
• 30-degree helix angle with right-hand spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole
• Bright uncoated finish; no coating buildup concerns when regrinding
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction compatible with standard spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard collet chucks and end mill holders accepting a 7/8 inch shank. Primary workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys (ISO material codes P, M, K, S).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the spindle drive before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the collet or holder and torque the retention hardware according to the machine manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, and confirm spindle rotation direction matches the right-hand cut designation of this tool.
