Value Collection 723-5889 Roughing End Mill 2in 8 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-5889 is a single-end cobalt roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers elevated heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling, making it well suited for tougher workpiece materials. The mill features an 8-flute geometry with a bright/uncoated finish, a 2-inch cutting diameter, a 2-inch length of cut, and a 3/4-inch shank diameter. This combination supports high chip loads and efficient stock removal on manual and CNC milling machines. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard on this tool.

This roughing end mill is intended for use in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and production environments where rapid material removal is the priority. It is appropriate for ferrous and harder non-ferrous materials where cobalt tooling provides a performance advantage over standard HSS. The single-end configuration and 4-1/2-inch overall length fit standard milling machine spindles and toolholders accepting a 3/4-inch shank. It is not center-cutting, so plunge milling is not a recommended operation with this tool.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved heat resistance and tool life in demanding cuts
• 8-flute design supports high feed rates and efficient stock removal
• 2-inch cutting diameter with 2-inch length of cut for deep-reach roughing passes
• 3/4-inch shank diameter fits standard milling toolholders
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for conventional milling setups
• Bright/uncoated finish — no additional coating to affect dimensional tolerance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use roughing end mill for milling machines and machining centers accepting a 3/4-inch shank single-end end mill.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolholding procedures. Secure the shank fully into a collet, end mill holder, or milling chuck rated for the shank diameter before engaging the spindle. Verify that the machine spindle direction matches the right-hand cutting direction of this tool before operation. Because this tool is not center-cutting, do not use it for plunge entry into solid material.
