Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this cutter offers greater heat and wear resistance than standard M2 HSS tooling, making it well suited for harder workpiece materials and higher-feed applications. The 3\/16-inch cutting diameter pairs with a 1\/2-inch length of cut and a four-flute, right-hand spiral geometry that balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality. The bright, uncoated finish is compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in vertical machining centers, knee mills, and CNC milling machines across job shops, tool-and-die operations, and general metalworking environments. The 3\/8-inch shank diameter accommodates standard collet chucks and end mill holders commonly found in these setups. The 2-3\/8-inch overall length provides sufficient reach for typical pocket and contour work without sacrificing rigidity. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers working in production and prototype settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for improved heat resistance compared to standard HSS tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute, right-hand spiral geometry balances chip removal with surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall end profile suited for 3D contouring, radius profiling, and pocket machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish compatible with oil-based and water-soluble cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with a 3\/8-inch shank for secure clamping in collet and end mill holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction matches conventional milling machine spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard single-end ball end mill for use in vertical mills and CNC machining centers that accept a 3\/8-inch shank collet or end mill holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cutter is installed and changed by qualified machinists. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing any end mill. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the collet or set-screw holder is torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification before engaging a cut. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use, and never exceed the rated depth of cut or feed rate for the tool diameter and workpiece material combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42 HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 723-3702\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51719393214770,"sku":"723-3702","price":58.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d9903574a56da8464853a89dcb4d6231.jpg?v=1788559214","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-723-3702-ball-end-mill-3-16in-4-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
