Value Collection 723-3651 Square End Mill 1/16 in 3 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-3651 is a cobalt square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers superior heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling. The single-end configuration features a 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) mill diameter, a 5/32 inch (0.1563 inch) length of cut, and a 30-degree helix angle with three right-hand spiral flutes. This geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bright/uncoated finish suits a wide range of general-purpose milling tasks without added coating cost.

This end mill is suited for light-duty slot milling, profiling, and contouring on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The 1/4 inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders widely used in production and job-shop environments. The long-series overall length of 1-3/32 inches (1.0937 inches) provides additional reach where clearance is needed. This tool is appropriate for machinists, toolmakers, and skilled trade professionals working in precision metal fabrication, mold making, and general machining.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved heat resistance and extended tool life in hard materials
• 3 right-hand spiral flutes with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Bright/uncoated finish for general-purpose use across a range of materials
• Long-series length type provides added reach for deep-cavity milling
• Single-end configuration; right-hand cutting direction

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for 1/4 inch collet chucks and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or end mill holder and secure to the manufacturer-recommended clamping torque using the appropriate wrench. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning cuts to prevent premature tool wear or breakage.
