Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a TiN coating, it handles tough ferrous and non-ferrous materials with good wear resistance and heat tolerance. The mill measures 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches) in diameter with a 3\/4 inch length of cut and a 2-1\/2 inch overall length. Three flutes in a high-helix, right-hand configuration break chips aggressively and clear them from the cut zone, reducing heat buildup during aggressive stock removal passes. The 3\/8 inch shank fits standard collets and end mill holders on most vertical machining centers and manual knee mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis roughing end mill is suited for machinist and toolroom applications in job shops, production floors, and maintenance environments. It is center-cutting, so it can be plunged directly into workpiece material where the operation requires it. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional and climb milling on CNC and manual equipment. It is a practical choice for roughing passes on steel, alloy steel, and similar materials where cycle time and metal removal rate are priorities before a finish end mill is run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for heat resistance and edge retention in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating extends tool life and reduces friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 flutes with high-helix, right-hand spiral for aggressive chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch shank fits standard collets and tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end configuration with right-hand cutting direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard roughing end mill for use in vertical machining centers, CNC mills, and manual knee mills equipped with collet systems or end mill holders accepting a 3\/8 inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the collet or end mill holder and torque the retention hardware according to the machine tool manufacturer specifications. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use, and verify runout with a dial indicator when precision is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 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: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.7500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: High\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: 0.02 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: 724-6418\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710344331570,"sku":"724-6418","price":35.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/42d94adc114b1e9671d83e7a6dd191cf.jpg?v=1788465912","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-724-6418-roughing-end-mill-5-16-in-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
