Value Collection 934-000-033 Square End Mill 3/16 in Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 934-000-033 is a cobalt square end mill designed for metal cutting and milling operations in machine shop and manufacturing environments. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this double-end stub-length tool delivers good heat and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features a 3/16 inch cutting diameter, a 9/32 inch length of cut, and a 40-degree helix angle on a spiral flute geometry. The centercutting design allows plunge milling as well as side and slot milling. Machinists, CNC operators, and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users of this tool.

This end mill is suited for light-duty milling, slotting, and profiling operations on a wide range of materials including alloy steels, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum. Its stub-length configuration provides added rigidity over standard-length tools, making it a practical choice for shallow-pocket and close-tolerance work. The double-end design offers a second cutting end when the first shows wear, extending usable tool life between replacements. It fits standard tool holders and collets sized for a 3/16 inch straight shank.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt steel construction provides elevated heat resistance compared to standard HSS
• Double-end design gives two usable cutting ends per tool
• 40-degree helix spiral flute for improved chip evacuation and surface finish
• Centercutting geometry supports plunge milling and full-slot entry
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for use in standard spindle rotation
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids or dry cutting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use stub-length square end mill for 3/16 inch straight-shank tool holders and collets used in vertical mills, CNC machining centers, and manual knee mills.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinist or CNC operator personnel. Secure the shank fully in the collet or end mill holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening to avoid runout. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Inspect both cutting ends for chipping or wear before use, and confirm tool holder bore size matches the 3/16 inch shank diameter.
