Value Collection 722-4056 Square End Mill 9/16 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 722-4056 is a double-end, four-flute square end mill designed for general-purpose milling operations in metal fabrication and machine shop environments. Manufactured from M2 high speed steel and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this tool delivers improved wear resistance and surface hardness compared to uncoated HSS tooling. It measures 9/16 inches in cutting diameter with a 1-3/8 inch length of cut and a 5-inch overall length. The 5/8-inch shank diameter provides solid tool-holder engagement. A 30-degree helix angle and spiral flute geometry support chip evacuation during peripheral and slot milling cuts.

This end mill is suited for use on manual mills, knee mills, and CNC machining centers in job shop, maintenance, and production environments. The double-end configuration allows the operator to index to the second cutting end when one end reaches the end of its service life, extending the useful life of the tool. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction make it compatible with standard spindle rotation on conventional milling equipment. It is not center-cutting and is therefore not suited for direct plunge cutting. Coolant-through capability is not available on this tool.

Key Features

• M2 high speed steel construction for toughness in interrupted and general milling cuts
• TiN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge
• Double-end design provides two usable cutting ends per tool
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flutes for efficient chip flow
• Right-hand cut, right-hand helix for use with standard milling machine spindles
• 5/8-inch shank diameter for secure collet or end mill holder retention

Compatibility

Designed as a fractional-inch, double-end square end mill for use in standard milling machine collets and end mill holders accepting a 5/8-inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation of this end mill should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the spindle drive before changing tooling. Ensure the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the collet or end mill holder per the machine tool manufacturer specifications. This tool is not center-cutting and must not be used for direct plunge entry into solid material.
