Value Collection 723-4304 Square End Mill 3/32 in Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-4304 is a cobalt square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this double-end tool features a 3/32 inch (0.0938 inch) cutting diameter and a 5/32 inch (0.1563 inch) length of cut. The spiral flute geometry and 30-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. With four flutes and a bright, uncoated finish, this stub-length end mill delivers consistent performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this type of tooling in CNC machining centers and manual mills.

This end mill is suited for light-duty profiling, slotting, and contouring passes in precision machining environments. The double-end configuration extends tool life by providing two usable cutting ends. The 3/16 inch (0.1875 inch) shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders commonly found in both vertical machining centers and knee mills. The stub length and center-cutting design allow plunge entry as well as conventional milling paths. This size range is typical in tool-and-die, mold work, and general metalworking shops.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for increased heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends, extending tool value
• Center-cutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material
• 30-degree helix spiral flutes promote efficient chip removal
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle rotation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for use with or without cutting fluid

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for applications requiring a 3/16 inch shank, 3/32 inch diameter square end mill in fractional inch sizing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists using appropriate collets or end mill holders rated for the 3/16 inch shank diameter. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating the tool to ensure concentricity. Follow shop safety protocols and applicable OSHA machine guarding standards when operating milling equipment.
