Value Collection 720-8100 Square End Mill 10mm 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-8100 is a single-end square end mill designed for milling operations requiring precise flat-bottom cuts, shoulders, and slots. Manufactured from M2 high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish, this end mill features a 10 mm (0.3937 inch) cutting diameter, a 3/4 inch length of cut, and a 4-flute spiral flute configuration. The right-hand cutting, right-hand helix geometry at a 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and stable cutting action. It is intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals on manual mills and CNC machining centers working with ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This end mill is suited for general-purpose milling in job shop, maintenance, and production environments. The 3/8 inch shank diameter fits standard ER collet chucks and end mill holders common to knee mills and vertical machining centers. The bright/uncoated finish makes it a cost-effective option for lower-speed applications and materials where coating is not required. The 10 mm metric cutting diameter supports metric-based part programs and drawings. It is sold as a single-end tool and is not designed for extended-reach applications.

Key Features

• 10 mm cutting diameter with 0.3937 inch decimal equivalent for use with metric or inch-based setups
• M2 high speed steel construction provides good toughness and wear resistance for general milling
• 4-flute spiral design with 30-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip removal and surface finish
• Center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry into workpiece material
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for lower-speed cutting and dry machining applications
• Single-end configuration with 3/8 inch shank and 2-1/2 inch overall length

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for manual knee mills, vertical machining centers, and CNC mills accepting a 3/8 inch shank end mill holder or ER collet system. Part of the VCCC-HSS-4 series.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine powered down and the spindle fully stopped. Ensure the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the collet chuck or end mill holder per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut. Always wear appropriate PPE when handling or changing cutting tools.
