Value Collection 724-4086 Roughing Finishing End Mill

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 724-4086 is a single-end roughing finishing end mill designed for aggressive material removal followed by semi-finish passes in a single tool. Manufactured from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers heat resistance and edge retention when cutting ferrous and harder alloy materials. The 4-flute, square-end geometry with a 30-degree helix angle balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality. A Weldon flat shank ensures positive rotational drive in compatible toolholders. At 0.375 inches in diameter with a 1.125-inch length of cut and 2.9375-inch overall length, it fits standard milling setups and CNC machining centers.

This end mill is suited for general-purpose milling operations in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments. The right-hand cutting direction and right-hand flute orientation are standard for conventional vertical and horizontal milling applications. The bright, uncoated finish makes it appropriate for use with cutting fluids and in materials where coated tools may not be preferred. Machinists and CNC operators working with steel, alloy steel, and similar workpiece materials are the primary users of this tool.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for superior heat resistance and hardness retention over standard M2 HSS
• 30-degree helix angle balances chip flow and finish quality in ferrous materials
• Weldon flat shank provides positive drive and reduces slippage in toolholders
• Square end geometry suitable for slotting, peripheral milling, and shoulder milling
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute, single-end configuration for standard milling setups
• Bright, uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock tooling option for 3/8-inch Weldon flat shank toolholders used in conventional and CNC milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator with the spindle fully stopped and machine controls locked out before tool changes. Secure the Weldon flat shank in a compatible set-screw toolholder, ensuring the flat is properly aligned with the set screw for positive drive. Confirm runout within acceptable tolerance before beginning a cut. This tool is not centercutting and should not be used for direct plunge operations.
