Value Collection 723-2064 Square End Mill 5/8 in Cobalt 2 Flute

Product Description

The Value Collection 723-2064 is a cobalt square end mill designed for material removal and profiling in metalworking applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers heat and wear resistance suited for harder ferrous materials. The cutter measures 5/8 inches in diameter with a 1-1/8 inch length of cut and a 4-1/2 inch overall length. With 2 flutes and a 30-degree helix angle, it produces efficient chip evacuation on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys. The bright, uncoated finish works well where coating compatibility with workpiece material or cutting fluid is a concern. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users.

This end mill is suited for milling, slotting, and profiling operations on CNC machining centers and manual mills. It is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry into the workpiece without a pre-drilled hole. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending service life before replacement is required. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation match conventional spindle rotation on standard milling machines. Primary workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction resists heat buildup when cutting ferrous and high-temp alloy workpieces
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without pre-drilling
• 30-degree spiral flute helix promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Bright uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids and workpiece materials
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for use in standard milling machine setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys per material codes P, M, K, and S. Fits standard 5/8 inch collet or end mill holder setups on CNC and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists and toolroom professionals. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Secure the shank fully in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before beginning a cut. Follow machine manufacturer torque specifications for drawbar and tool-holding hardware.
