Value Collection 723-9150 Square End Mill 15mm 2 Flute Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 723-9150 is a cobalt square end mill designed for material removal and profiling in demanding machining applications. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this single-end mill features a 15 mm (0.5906 inch) cutting diameter and a 2-flute spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle. The bright, uncoated finish is well-suited for applications where coating is not required or where regrinding is anticipated. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and toolroom professionals using manual or CNC milling machines.

This end mill is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys across ISO material groups P, M, K, and S. Its regular-length profile and 1-1/8-inch length of cut make it a practical choice for slot milling, peripheral milling, and general-purpose profiling in both job shop and production environments. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional and climb milling setups on most vertical and horizontal milling machines.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction provides heat and wear resistance in ferrous and high-temp alloy cutting
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Center-cutting design allows plunge entry as well as peripheral cuts
• Bright/uncoated finish supports regrinding and is compatible with standard cutting fluids
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for use on standard milling setups
• Single-end configuration; Series VCCC-C-2 regular length

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1/2-inch collets, end mill holders, or Weldon-style tool holders on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines. Compatible with workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys per ISO groups P, M, K, and S.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist. Ensure the tool holder and spindle are clean and free of debris before seating the 1/2-inch shank. Verify runout with a dial indicator after tool installation to minimize premature wear and maintain dimensional accuracy. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting speeds and feeds for cobalt end mills in ferrous materials.
