Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this tool handles interrupted cuts and harder workpiece materials that standard HSS tooling struggles with. The 1\/2 inch diameter, 4-flute geometry produces a corrugated chip load that reduces cutting forces and heat buildup during heavy roughing passes. With a 1 inch length of cut and 3 inch overall length, it fits standard vertical mills, knee mills, and CNC machining centers. Installed and replaced by machinists, toolroom operators, and maintenance mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis roughing end mill is suited for roughing operations in job shops, production machining, and maintenance environments where material needs to be removed quickly before a finishing pass. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups. The 1\/2 inch shank diameter fits directly into standard R8 collets, ER collet chucks, and end mill holders without adapters. It is not center-cutting, so plunge milling is not recommended. Pre-drill or use a center-cutting tool to establish a start hole before engaging this tool in a pocket operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating extends tool life and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute roughing geometry breaks chips into smaller segments, reducing load per flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute — compatible with standard milling machine spindle direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch shank fits common collet chucks and end mill holders without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design — one active cutting end per tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-geometry roughing end mill for use in any vertical or CNC milling machine equipped with a 1\/2 inch collet or end mill holder.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder and torque the drawbar or nut to the machine manufacturer specification. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before use. Because this tool is not center-cutting, avoid direct plunge entry into solid material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt HSS, M42 Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (1.0000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 723-6732\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690387767602,"sku":"723-6732","price":79.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ddd099db8fed5b50a4494e3b56a82d13.jpg?v=1788269798","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-723-6732-roughing-end-mill-1-2-in-4-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
