Value Collection 723-6762 Roughing End Mill 0.75 in 4 Flute Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-6762 is a single-end roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling operations. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, it delivers elevated heat resistance and extended cutting life compared to standard HSS tooling. The 0.75 inch diameter cutter features 4 flutes with a right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction, making it suited for conventional milling setups on manual or CNC machining equipment. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use roughing end mills like this to hog out material quickly before a finishing pass.

This roughing end mill is intended for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in shop environments where material removal rate is the priority. The 0.75 inch length of cut and 3 inch overall length suit it for moderate-depth pocketing, slotting, and profiling applications. The non-centercutting geometry means it is not designed for plunge cutting and should be used with a pre-drilled entry or ramped entry path. It is a single-end tool — when the cutting end is worn, the tool is replaced rather than flipped.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt HSS construction provides higher red hardness than standard M2 HSS for demanding cuts
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous materials
• 4-flute geometry balances chip clearance with rigidity for semi-rough to rough milling
• Right-hand cut and right-hand helix for use in standard spindle-forward operations
• Non-centercutting design — requires pre-drilled or ramped entry, not for plunge cutting
• Single-end configuration with 0.75 inch length of cut and 3 inch overall length

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use roughing end mill for standard 3/4 inch collet or end mill holders on vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes must be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and the machine in a locked or e-stopped state. Use a properly sized end mill holder or collet that matches the 0.75 inch shank diameter, and torque the retention mechanism per the holder manufacturer specification. Because this is a non-centercutting tool, program a ramped or helical entry rather than a direct plunge. Inspect the cutting edges and TiN coating before each use and replace the tool if chipping or coating wear is evident.
