Value Collection 720-3029 Square End Mill 21/64 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-3029 is a single-end, 4-flute square end mill manufactured from M2 high speed steel. It carries a bright/uncoated finish and features a 30-degree helix angle with right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction. Designed for general-purpose milling operations, this tool is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The regular-length geometry and fractional-inch sizing make it a practical choice for machinists and toolroom professionals working on manual or CNC mills.

This end mill fits standard milling applications in job shops, toolrooms, and production environments. With a 21/64 inch cutting diameter and 3/8 inch shank, it mounts in a wide range of collet chucks and end mill holders found on knee mills, bed mills, and CNC machining centers. The 3/4 inch length of cut accommodates typical slotting and profiling depths in light to medium material removal work.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for wear resistance in general-purpose milling
• 4-flute spiral design provides a balance of chip clearance and surface finish quality
• 30-degree right-hand helix promotes smooth cutting action and chip evacuation
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids on a broad range of workpiece materials
• Single-end configuration for straightforward tool changes and holder compatibility
• Non-centercutting geometry — not intended for direct plunge cuts

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fractional-inch single-end square end mill for use in collet chucks, end mill holders, and milling arbors accepting a 3/8 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Secure the shank fully within the holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Confirm spindle speed and feed rate settings are appropriate for the workpiece material and depth of cut before beginning operation. This tool is not centercutting — avoid direct axial plunge cuts without first pre-drilling or ramping into the material.
