Value Collection 724-4164 Roughing Finishing End Mill

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 724-4164 is a single-end roughing finishing end mill engineered for material removal and finish passes in one tool. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it delivers heat and wear resistance suited for harder ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 11/16 inch (0.6875 inch) mill diameter pairs with a 5/8 inch Weldon flat shank for positive drive and minimal runout in standard end mill holders. A 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation, and the square end profile is appropriate for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary installers of this tooling.

This end mill is intended for use in vertical machining centers, knee mills, and manual or CNC milling machines equipped with holders accepting a 5/8 inch Weldon flat shank. The 4-flute configuration suits steels, alloys, and other materials where chip space is less critical and surface finish quality is a priority. The right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting orientation are standard for conventional and climb milling setups. The Bright/Uncoated finish makes the tool well suited for applications where coating adhesion is not a factor or where re-grinding is anticipated.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for elevated heat resistance in demanding milling operations
• 11/16 inch mill diameter with 1-5/8 inch length of cut for side milling and slotting flexibility
• 5/8 inch Weldon flat shank ensures positive drive and reduced slippage in holders
• 4-flute square end geometry supports both roughing and finishing passes
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduced cutting forces
• Bright/Uncoated finish compatible with re-grinding for extended tool life management

Compatibility

Designed for use in milling machines and machining centers accepting a 5/8 inch Weldon flat shank end mill holder. Verify spindle RPM range and feed rate recommendations for M42 cobalt tooling based on workpiece material before use.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before loading or removing tooling. Seat the Weldon flat shank fully into the holder and torque the set screw to the holder specification before engaging the spindle. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use.
