Value Collection 724-6415 Roughing End Mill 9/32 in Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 724-6415 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 (titanium nitride) coating, it delivers good wear resistance and heat tolerance during heavy cuts. The cutter measures 9/32 inch (0.2813 inches) in diameter with a 3/4 inch length of cut, a 3/8 inch shank diameter, and an overall length of 2-1/2 inches. Its 3-flute, right-hand cutting geometry with a high helix style promotes chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Centercutting capability allows plunge entry directly into workpiece material.

This roughing end mill is suited for use in manual mills and CNC machining centers handling ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The cobalt construction makes it appropriate for harder alloys and interrupted cuts where standard HSS tooling would wear prematurely. It is a single-end tool, so once the cutting end is worn, the tool is replaced rather than reversed. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments are the primary users of this style of cutter.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved hardness and heat resistance over standard HSS
• TiN coating extends cutting edge life and reduces friction
• High helix flute direction promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design permits direct plunge milling
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for standard spindle operation
• 3/8 inch shank fits standard collets and end mill holders

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-end roughing end mill with a 3/8 inch shank, compatible with any milling machine spindle or CNC machining center that accepts 3/8 inch round shank tooling via collet chuck or end mill holder.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician using an appropriate collet or end mill holder torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing tooling. Inspect the shank and collet bore for chips or damage before seating the tool. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation before beginning a cut.
