It measures 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inches) in diameter with a 1-inch length of cut and a 1\/2-inch shank diameter. The overall length is 4-1\/8 inches (4.125 inches). Manufactured from M2 high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this end mill is suited for shops running conventional milling operations where coated carbide is not required. The double-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending service life before replacement is needed. Machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits standard milling machines, knee mills, and CNC machining centers that accept a 1\/2-inch straight shank. The regular-length body and 30-degree right-hand spiral flute geometry make it appropriate for face milling, slotting, and peripheral milling in steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. It is a fractional-inch, standard-series tool suitable for production and maintenance machining environments. The non-centercutting design means it is not intended for direct plunge cutting; use a centercutting tool or pre-drilled entry point for pocket work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-end construction provides two cutting ends for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction handles a broad range of common workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix promotes chip evacuation during peripheral and slot milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — compatible with most cutting fluids and oils without adhesion concerns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch shank diameter fits widely available collets, end mill holders, and Weldon-style holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-centercutting geometry — not suitable for direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard fractional-inch replacement end mill for milling machines and machining centers that accept a 1\/2-inch shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked before loading or removing any cutting tool. Seat the shank fully into the holder and verify runout with a dial indicator before cutting. Do not exceed the rated length of cut; extended engagement beyond the flute length can cause tool deflection or breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/8 inches (4.125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (M2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright, Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCDE-HSS-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fractional Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 720-4048\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716119363890,"sku":"720-4048","price":70.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1fc90aeeb272c73a6ab828234a234eb0.jpg?v=1788521988","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-720-4048-square-end-mill-15-32-in-4-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
