Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it handles tough materials including stainless steel, hardened steel, and high-temperature alloys where standard HSS tooling falls short. The 1.5-inch cutting diameter and 6-flute configuration allow heavier chip loads per pass while the TiN coating extends tool life by reducing friction and heat buildup at the cutting edge. This tool is appropriate for milling operations on knee mills, bed mills, and CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis roughing end mill is suited for roughing passes on ferrous and difficult-to-machine metals in job shop, toolroom, and production environments. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups. The 0.75-inch shank diameter fits R8 collets, standard end mill holders, and shrink-fit tooling commonly found on Bridgeport-style and vertical CNC mills. It is not center-cutting, so it cannot be plunged directly into solid material and must be side-loaded or ramped into the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for performance in stainless steel and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces heat and wear for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-flute geometry supports higher feed rates during roughing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.125-inch length of cut provides depth capacity for most roughing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard milling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-center-cutting design — requires ramp or side-entry engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style roughing end mill for use in standard 0.75-inch end mill holders, R8 collets, and equivalent toolholding systems on vertical knee mills and CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the spindle before loading or changing tooling. Ensure the shank is clean and fully seated in the holder to the correct gauge line before tightening. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and depth of cut before engaging the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\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\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 723-6853\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696631546162,"sku":"723-6853","price":178.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/69541fe8bdafa0168b5dac5531971d90.jpg?v=1788344667","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-723-6853-roughing-end-mill-1-5-in-6-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
