Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tool handles tough ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials where standard HSS tooling falls short. The 5\/16-inch cutting diameter pairs with a 3\/8-inch shank diameter, giving it a solid grip in standard collets and end mill holders. With 3 flutes and a right-hand cutting and flute direction, it generates efficient chip evacuation during roughing passes. The 1-1\/8-inch length of cut and 2-15\/16-inch overall length suit it to short-reach slotting and profiling work on CNC mills and manual knee mills alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\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 M42 construction makes it a practical choice for cutting alloy steels, stainless steel, and other harder materials at elevated feeds. It is not center-cutting, so it requires a pre-drilled entry point or ramp entry when plunging. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC operators working on molds, fixtures, and structural components are the primary users of this tool type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt high-speed steel construction for heat and wear resistance in hard-material cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation during high-feed roughing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with or without cutting fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-end design with 1-1\/8 inch length of cut and 2-15\/16 inch overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot center-cutting — requires ramp entry or pre-drilled pilot hole for plunge operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for milling machines accepting a 3\/8-inch shank end mill holder or collet chuck in CNC or manual mill spindles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator using a properly sized collet or end mill holder torqued per machine-tool manufacturer specifications. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating the shank to confirm concentricity before beginning a cut. Because this tool is not center-cutting, do not attempt direct plunge entry without a pilot hole or programmed ramp path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inch (1.1250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-15\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\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: Bright\/Uncoated\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\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: 724-2056\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694518698290,"sku":"724-2056","price":56.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aeeced21e1510207a24fc4746348e179.jpg?v=1788324931","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-2056-roughing-end-mill-5-16-in-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
