Value Collection 720-9140 Square End Mill 14mm 2 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 720-9140 is a single-end square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in machine shops and manufacturing environments. It is manufactured from M2 high speed steel and features a bright, uncoated finish. The cutting diameter is 14 mm (0.5512 inches) with a length of cut of 1-1/8 inches and a 30-degree helix angle on right-hand spiral flutes. With two flutes and center-cutting capability, this end mill handles slotting, peripheral milling, and plunge cutting. Installation and tool changes are performed by machinists and CNC operators on vertical mills, knee mills, and machining centers.

This end mill is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials. The 1/2-inch shank diameter fits standard ER collets and end mill holders common to most milling setups. The 3-1/8-inch overall length provides clearance for typical workholding arrangements without extended-reach tooling. It is appropriate for light-to-moderate material removal rates where high speed steel performance meets application requirements and carbide tooling is not necessary.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials
• 14 mm (0.5512 inch) cutting diameter with 1-1/8 inch length of cut
• 2-flute geometry supports chip evacuation in slotting and full-width cuts
• 30-degree right-hand helix with right-hand cutting direction
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Bright/uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional tolerance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-end square end mill with a 1/2-inch shank diameter, compatible with ER collet chucks and end mill holders sized for 1/2-inch tooling on vertical mills and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Tool changes must be performed with the machine spindle fully stopped and all motion axes at rest. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque the retention nut to the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for damage before each use. Follow shop safety practices and applicable machine tool operating standards when setting tool length offsets and depth-of-cut parameters.
