Value Collection 840-0031 Square End Mill 1/32 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 840-0031 is a double-end, two-flute square end mill designed for precision milling of small-diameter features in metal and other machinable materials. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tool delivers consistent cutting performance in light- to medium-duty milling operations. The mill diameter measures 0.0313 inches (1/32 inch) with a 3/32-inch (0.0938-inch) length of cut. At 2.25 inches overall length with a 3/16-inch straight shank, it mounts in standard collet and end mill holders used by machinists in job shops and production environments.

This end mill is suited for milling slots, pockets, and profiles where small-diameter tooling is required. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation during right-hand cutting operations. The double-end design extends tool life by providing two usable cutting ends, making it a practical choice for shops managing tooling costs on small-feature work. It is appropriate for use in vertical machining centers, knee mills, and bench-top CNC machines.

Key Features

• Double-end design provides two cutting ends for extended tool life
• High speed steel construction handles a broad range of machinable materials
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Center-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry into the workpiece
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle use
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose milling applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for 3/16-inch straight-shank collet systems used in vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers requiring 1/32-inch diameter end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolroom practices. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of debris before securing the shank. Confirm collet or chuck bore matches the 3/16-inch shank diameter and that the tool is clamped to adequate insertion depth to prevent pullout. Follow applicable machine manufacturer torque guidelines for the tool holder in use.
