Value Collection 723-4322 Cobalt Square End Mill 3/32 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-4322 is a double-end cobalt square end mill designed for milling ferrous and hard materials in machining centers, knee mills, and manual milling machines. Manufactured from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this tool delivers the heat and wear resistance needed for cutting alloy steels, stainless, and other demanding workpiece materials. The 3/32-inch cutting diameter paired with a 9/32-inch length of cut makes it well suited for light profiling, slotting, and peripheral milling in tight-tolerance applications. The bright, uncoated finish allows machinists to visually inspect the cutting edges between passes.

This end mill is used in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments where small-diameter precision work is required. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends per tool, extending service life and reducing per-cut tooling cost. The 30-degree right-hand spiral flutes promote efficient chip evacuation. Center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry without pre-drilling. Typical applications include slot milling, profiling, and step milling in materials such as carbon steel, alloy steel, and cast iron.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt HSS construction for elevated heat resistance in hard and abrasive materials
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool for extended tool life
• 4 right-hand spiral flutes at 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Center-cutting capable — allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Bright/uncoated finish — suitable for use with or without cutting fluid
• Regular length type with 3/16-inch shank fits standard collets and end mill holders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for milling machines and machining centers accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter end mill holder or collet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. The shank must be fully seated in the collet or end mill holder and clamped to the manufacturer-specified retention torque for the holder type in use. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning cuts to prevent premature edge wear or tool breakage at this small diameter.
