Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it handles tough ferrous metals and heat-resistant alloys where standard HSS tooling would break down. The 4-flute, right-hand cutting geometry with a bright uncoated finish delivers efficient chip evacuation during heavy roughing passes. The 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inch decimal) cutting diameter pairs with a 1\/2 inch shank, and the 1.25 inch length of cut accommodates most standard roughing depths in a single pass. Centercutting capability allows plunge entry when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in manual knee mills, CNC vertical machining centers, and horizontal mills across job shops, maintenance shops, and production environments. It is suited for roughing slots, pockets, and peripheral cuts in steel, stainless, cast iron, and similar materials. The right-hand flute direction and right-hand cut configuration make it compatible with conventional right-hand spindle setups. The 3.25 inch overall length fits standard R8, CAT, BT, and directly collet-mounted toolholders sized for a 1\/2 inch shank. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers and operators of this tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for heat and wear resistance in hard ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute single-end geometry optimized for heavy roughing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids or dry cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch shank fits common collet and toolholder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in milling machines equipped with toolholders accepting a 1\/2 inch shank diameter, including collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit systems on both manual and CNC vertical or horizontal mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or changing tooling. Seat the 1\/2 inch shank fully into the collet or toolholder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Verify runout with a dial indicator after securing the tool, as excessive runout accelerates wear and reduces surface finish quality on roughing cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4688 inches\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 (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: 724-0098\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720913649970,"sku":"724-0098","price":109.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/263329d248e8e73f9f78b3f2343fc18e.jpg?v=1788570877","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-0098-roughing-end-mill-15-32-in-4-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
