Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, it handles tough ferrous metals and hardened workpiece materials where standard HSS tooling falls short. The cutter measures 0.75 inches in diameter with a 1.25-inch length of cut and a 3.5-inch overall length. Four right-hand flutes with a right-hand cutting direction provide a stable, efficient chip load during roughing passes. The center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece without a pre-drilled pilot hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for manual mills, CNC machining centers, and knee mills operating in job shops, maintenance environments, and production settings. It is well-matched to cutting steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and similar materials where high heat resistance and edge retention are required. The 0.75-inch shank diameter fits standard ER, R8, and CAT\/BT toolholders of the same bore size commonly found in general machining setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for superior heat and wear resistance versus standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design enables direct plunge milling without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute configuration delivers a good balance of chip clearance and surface finish during roughing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.75-inch shank matches the cutter diameter for rigid, concentric holding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit roughing end mill for any toolholder or collet chuck accepting a 0.75-inch straight shank, including common R8, ER32, ER40, and CAT\/BT40 setups used on vertical mills and CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and tool changes must be performed with the machine spindle fully stopped and locked out per standard lockout\/tagout procedure. Seat the shank fully into the collet or toolholder before tightening to the torque specification listed by the toolholder manufacturer. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for damage before each use. Worn or chipped roughing end mills should be removed from service immediately to prevent workpiece damage or spindle bearing wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\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 (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\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: 724-1179\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689185214770,"sku":"724-1179","price":112.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9c8eefa9507d822b02e402a6c12001d4.jpg?v=1788255796","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-1179-roughing-end-mill-3-4in-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
