Value Collection 720-4306 Square End Mill 7/64 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-4306 is a double-end, four-flute square end mill designed for precision milling operations in a wide range of shop and production environments. Built from M2 high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish, it offers a 7/64 inch (0.1094 inch) cutting diameter and a 5/32 inch (0.1563 inch) length of cut. The stub-length geometry keeps the tool rigid and minimizes deflection during light-to-moderate material removal. At 2 inches overall length with a 3/16 inch shank diameter, this end mill fits standard collet and end mill holders. Its centercutting capability allows plunge entry into workpiece material without pre-drilling.

This end mill is suited for milling slots, pockets, and profiles in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The double-end design provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life between replacements. The 30-degree right-hand spiral helix and right-hand cutting direction deliver efficient chip evacuation in conventional milling setups. It is commonly used in manual mills, CNC machining centers, and toolroom applications where small-diameter, close-tolerance work is required.

Key Features

• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool, reducing per-cut tooling cost
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without pilot drilling
• M2 high speed steel construction provides good wear resistance and toughness
• 30-degree right-hand helix promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Bright/uncoated finish is compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids and materials
• Stub length body increases rigidity and reduces deflection in small-diameter applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fractional-inch shank end mill for use in collet chucks, end mill holders, and compatible toolholding systems accepting a 3/16 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Secure the 3/16 inch shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer recommended speed and feed ranges for the workpiece material being cut.
