Value Collection 720-3611 Square End Mill 3/4 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-3611 is a 4-flute, single-end square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in metal fabrication and machining environments. Built from M2 high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it is suited for slotting, peripheral milling, and profiling cuts in steel, aluminum, and similar machinable materials. The mill measures 0.75 inches in cutting diameter with a 4-inch length of cut, making it an extra-long configuration appropriate for deep-pocket and extended-reach milling applications. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary installers and operators of this tooling.

This end mill is intended for use in vertical machining centers, knee mills, and CNC milling machines where a 3/4-inch straight shank is compatible with the spindle collet or chuck. The extra-long 6.25-inch overall length and 4-inch length of cut make it particularly useful when clearance is needed between the spindle nose and the workpiece surface. The spiral flute geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation during cutting operations. This is a right-hand cut, right-hand flute configuration, which is the standard orientation for conventional milling setups.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for toughness and wear resistance in general milling
• 4-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Extra-long configuration: 4-inch length of cut and 6.25-inch overall length
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating to delaminate during regrinding
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard milling machine setups
• Not center-cutting — not intended for direct plunge entry into solid material

Compatibility

Designed for use in milling machines and machining centers that accept a 3/4-inch straight shank via collet, end mill holder, or Weldon-style chuck. This is a fractional-inch series tool in the VC-HSS-4 line.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists following standard toolroom practice. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before loading or unloading the tool. Seat the shank fully into the holder to the recommended engagement depth and torque set screws per the holder manufacturer specifications. This tool is not center-cutting and requires a pre-drilled or pre-milled entry point for plunge operations.
