Value Collection 720-3127 Square End Mill 6 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-3127 is a single-end square end mill manufactured from M2 high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish. It features a 1.3125-inch cutting diameter, a 2-inch length of cut, and six spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle. The right-hand cutting direction and right-hand flute geometry make it suited for conventional milling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.75-inch shank diameter and 4.5-inch overall length, this is a regular-length tool intended for machining centers and manual mills. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this type of cutter for profiling, slotting, and peripheral milling work.

This end mill is designed for general-purpose material removal on a wide range of workpiece materials where HSS tooling is appropriate. The six-flute configuration provides a higher feed-per-tooth capability compared to four-flute designs at equivalent RPM, making it well suited for finishing passes and light to moderate stock removal in ferrous alloys, aluminum, and plastics. The bright/uncoated surface is compatible with most cutting fluids and straight oils.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for toughness and re-sharpenability
• Six spiral flutes at 30-degree helix angle for smooth chip evacuation
• 1.3125-inch (1-5/16 inch) cutting diameter, 2-inch length of cut
• 0.75-inch (3/4 inch) shank diameter fits standard ER and side-lock holders
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute, single-end configuration
• Bright/uncoated finish compatible with water-soluble and oil-based cutting fluids
• Not center-cutting — not intended for direct plunge entry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for milling machines and machining centers accepting a 0.75-inch shank diameter end mill holder.

Installation Notes

This end mill is installed by a machinist or toolroom professional into a compatible end mill holder or collet chuck rated for the 0.75-inch shank. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down or in a locked-out state before changing tooling. Confirm holder runout with a dial indicator before cutting, as excess runout accelerates wear on a six-flute tool. Because this tool is not center-cutting, use a ramp or helical entry path rather than direct axial plunge when starting a pocket.
