Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers heat resistance and edge retention suited to ferrous and harder workpiece materials. The cutter measures 7\/8 inch in diameter with a 3.5-inch length of cut and a 5.25-inch overall length, making it appropriate for moderate-depth slotting and profile milling. Five flutes provide a balance of chip evacuation and surface contact. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute geometry are standard. Installed by machinists and tool-and-die professionals on vertical and horizontal milling machines or machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis roughing end mill is suited for production and job-shop environments where rapid stock removal is the priority before a finishing pass. The cobalt construction handles interrupted cuts and harder alloys better than standard M2 high-speed steel. The 7\/8-inch shank diameter matches the cutter diameter, allowing direct mounting in a standard collet or end mill holder without a reduction sleeve. Centercutting geometry enables plunge entry, adding flexibility for ramp or plunge milling entry strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute roughing geometry accelerates material removal while managing chip load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand helix for conventional milling machine use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — suitable for use with cutting fluid or dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with 7\/8-inch shank for direct collet mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style roughing end mill for use in standard 7\/8-inch collets or end mill holders on vertical mills, knee mills, and CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the spindle before seating or removing the tool from the holder. Verify collet or holder bore matches the 7\/8-inch shank diameter before tightening. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use and replace the tool if edge integrity is compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch (0.875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\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: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch (0.8750 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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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\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\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: 724-0224\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689694101810,"sku":"724-0224","price":222.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/47bdfcb42646588f46c5de0ec36551be.jpg?v=1788263119","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-0224-roughing-end-mill-7-8-in-5-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
