Value Collection 720-4016 Square End Mill 7/32 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-4016 is a double-end, 4-flute square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Manufactured from M2 high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish, it delivers reliable cutting performance without the added cost of specialty coatings. The mill measures 0.2188 inches (7/32 inch) in cutting diameter with a 0.5625-inch (9/16 inch) length of cut, a 0.3750-inch (3/8 inch) shank diameter, and a 3.25-inch overall length. The 30-degree spiral helix and right-hand cut geometry promote chip evacuation and smooth cutting action on manual mills and CNC machining centers alike.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in light-duty to medium-duty applications. Its regular-length classification and fractional-inch sizing make it a straightforward drop-in for standard toolholders. The double-end design extends usable tool life, offering a second cutting end once the first is worn. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in job shops, maintenance environments, or production settings will find this a dependable general-purpose cutter for steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials.

Key Features

• Double-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life
• M2 high speed steel construction offers a balance of toughness and wear resistance
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow during slotting and profiling
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry for standard spindle direction
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of general-purpose materials
• 4-flute configuration provides a good surface finish on finish milling passes

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock end mill for standard 3/8-inch toolholders, collet chucks, and end mill holders used on manual knee mills and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder to the recommended engagement depth and torque set screws per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before taking a first cut, as excessive runout accelerates tool wear and degrades surface finish.
