Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, it handles ferrous metals, stainless steel, and other tough materials where standard HSS tools wear prematurely. The cutter measures 3\/8 inches in diameter with a 4-flute, right-hand cutting and flute configuration. It is center-cutting, allowing for plunge entry as well as peripheral cutting. The 7\/16-inch length of cut and 2-3\/16-inch overall length make it suited for shallow-to-moderate depth roughing passes on production and job-shop machining equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use in vertical machining centers, CNC mills, and manual knee mills where roughing passes precede finishing operations. The coarse tooth geometry of a roughing end mill breaks chips aggressively and reduces cutting forces, which is particularly useful when hogging material from solid stock or profiling. Machinists and toolroom technicians working with ferrous alloys, alloy steels, and hardened materials will find the M42 cobalt grade appropriate for higher heat and interrupted-cut applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for elevated heat resistance compared to standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous and stainless applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute, right-hand cut and flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation during roughing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows plunge milling without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch shank diameter matches standard collets and end mill holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with 7\/16-inch length of cut for controlled depth of engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for 3\/8-inch single-end roughing end mills in standard ER, R8, and straight-bore end mill holders with a 3\/8-inch bore diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists using an appropriate collet or end mill holder torqued according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating the tool, as excessive runout accelerates edge wear on a roughing geometry. Follow shop-standard speeds and feeds for cobalt end mills cutting the specific workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.375 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 HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches (0.4375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\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\u003eCenter Cutting\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\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: 724-1071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51708388868402,"sku":"724-1071","price":31.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d09006449edae4fd5bf666ec39fe4602.jpg?v=1788445875","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-1071-roughing-end-mill-3-8in-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
