Value Collection 723-4103 Cobalt Square End Mill 5/32 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-4103 is a cobalt square end mill designed for precision milling of ferrous and non-ferrous metals in machine shop and production environments. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers improved heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life between changeovers. With a 4-flute spiral geometry and a 30-degree helix angle, this end mill produces a smooth finish while maintaining chip evacuation in slot, profile, and plunge applications. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.

This end mill suits light-duty to medium-duty milling operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and similar materials. The centercutting design allows direct plunge cutting without a pre-drilled pilot hole. The bright uncoated finish is appropriate for general-purpose applications where a coating is not required. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation are standard for conventional milling setups.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved heat resistance over standard HSS
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• 4-flute spiral geometry with 30-degree helix angle for smooth surface finish
• Centercutting capable — supports direct plunge entry
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute — standard orientation for most milling setups
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous milling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for standard 3/8-inch straight shank collet chucks and end mill holders used in vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before beginning a cut. Follow applicable shop safety protocols and machine manufacturer guidelines for tool holding torque and RPM limits for cobalt end mills at this diameter.
