Value Collection 723-4306 Square End Mill 7/64 in Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-4306 is a cobalt double-end square end mill designed for precision milling in metal cutting applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this stub-length tool features a 7/64 inch (0.1094 inch) cutting diameter, four spiral flutes, and a 30-degree helix angle. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life between changes. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry follow standard milling conventions. The centercutting design allows plunge cuts in addition to peripheral and slot milling. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with steel, stainless, and other ferrous materials will find this geometry well suited to close-tolerance work.

This end mill is sized for light-duty milling passes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The 5/32 inch length of cut and 3/16 inch shank diameter target small-feature work such as keyways, slots, and pockets in manual mills and CNC machining centers. The stub-length body reduces deflection during cuts, making it appropriate for applications where rigidity is a priority. The uncoated bright finish is compatible with cutting fluids commonly used in job shop environments.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard HSS
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry
• Four-flute spiral configuration for efficient chip evacuation in slot and peripheral milling
• 30-degree helix angle balances cutting action and chip flow
• Uncoated bright finish compatible with standard coolant and cutting oil applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling selection for manual mills and CNC machining centers accepting a 3/16 inch shank diameter in ER or collet-style toolholders.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and the machine locked out before changing tooling. Seat the 3/16 inch shank fully into the collet or toolholder and torque the retention nut according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning the cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to maintain tool life and surface finish quality.
