Value Collection 724-1095 Roughing End Mill 7/16 in Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 724-1095 is a single-end roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling operations. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a TiN coating, it handles tough ferrous metals and heat-resistant alloys where standard HSS tooling falls short. The 7/16 inch cutting diameter pairs with a 3/8 inch shank and a 1 inch length of cut, making it a practical choice for slotting, profiling, and pocketing operations. Four right-hand flutes with a right-hand cutting direction provide efficient chip evacuation during roughing passes. Center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole.

This end mill is suited for job shop, tool room, and production machining environments where roughing cuts are taken on a knee mill, vertical machining center, or CNC router. It is appropriate for operators machining steel, stainless steel, and other alloys that generate significant heat at the cutting edge. The TiN coating extends tool life by reducing friction and improving surface hardness at the cutting zone. The compact 2-11/16 inch overall length keeps overhang minimal, which helps control chatter in standard milling setups.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for heat resistance in tough alloy machining
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• 4 right-hand flutes with right-hand cutting direction for efficient chip evacuation
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge entry
• 3/8 inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders
• Single-end configuration — 2-11/16 inch overall length minimizes overhang

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard roughing end mill for use in milling machines and machining centers accepting a 3/8 inch shank end mill holder or collet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the power lockout is engaged before loading or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully into the holder to the minimum insertion depth recommended by the holder manufacturer before torquing the set screw or collet nut. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use and replace if the TiN coating is worn through at the cutting zone.
