Value Collection 723-5930 Roughing End Mill Cobalt 4 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-5930 is a single-end cobalt roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling operations. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it handles harder ferrous materials and elevated cutting temperatures better than standard HSS tooling. The 0.25-inch cutting diameter pairs with a 0.375-inch shank, and the 4-flute geometry with a bright/uncoated finish delivers a balance of chip evacuation and surface contact. With a 0.625-inch length of cut and a 2.4375-inch overall length, this tool fits standard end mill holders and collet chucks on knee mills, bed mills, and CNC machining centers.

This roughing end mill is suited for profiling, slotting, and peripheral milling where stock removal rate takes priority over surface finish. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups. It is a non-centercutting tool, so plunge cuts require a pilot hole or ramping entry. Machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and maintenance shops running manual or CNC milling equipment are the primary users of this tool.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt HSS construction handles harder materials and higher cutting temperatures than standard M2 tooling
• 4-flute single-end configuration optimized for stock removal on ferrous materials
• 0.375-inch shank diameter fits standard ER and set-screw end mill holders
• Bright/uncoated finish for use with cutting fluids on ferrous metals
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for conventional milling compatibility
• Non-centercutting design requires ramping or pre-drilled entry for plunge operations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for standard end mill holders and collet systems accepting a 0.375-inch shank on manual or CNC milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or qualified tool-setup personnel. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked before seating or removing any end mill. Verify holder runout with a dial indicator before initiating a cut, as excessive runout accelerates tool wear and degrades surface finish. Follow machine manufacturer torque guidelines for set-screw or collet nut tightening.
