The tool measures 0.0450 inches in diameter with a 0.0680-inch length of cut and a 0.1875-inch straight-cylindrical shank. Overall length is 1.5 inches. The 2-flute spiral configuration supports both roughing and finishing passes, while the variable helix angle of 35 to 40 degrees reduces chatter and improves chip evacuation. The bright, uncoated finish is standard for cobalt tools and suits applications where coatings are not required or preferred. The 0.0225-inch nose radius is fixed. This stub-length geometry is intended for machinists and CNC operators requiring tight-tolerance cuts in confined workspaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for use on CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-diameter tooling is required. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry, and cuts in a right-hand direction with right-hand flute orientation. The cobalt substrate handles elevated cutting temperatures better than standard high-speed steel, making it appropriate for harder and more abrasive workpiece materials. It is designed for single-end use and carries no extended-reach or coolant-through features, consistent with its stub-length classification in the Series 857 lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0450-inch mill diameter with 0.0680-inch length of cut for small-feature milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt construction for improved heat resistance versus standard high-speed steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable helix (35 to 40 degrees) reduces vibration and improves surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral geometry supports both roughing and finishing in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish compatible with cutting fluids and oil-based coolants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for use on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, high-temperature alloys, and hardened materials.

Secure the 0.1875-inch straight shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder, ensuring adequate grip length to prevent pull-out under cutting loads. Verify spindle runout before beginning cuts, as excessive runout at this diameter will cause accelerated tool wear and poor tolerances. Always confirm the machine is at a full stop and spindle power is off before changing or inspecting tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0450 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0680 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0225 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 to 40 degrees (variable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Aluminum and Non-Ferrous, High-Temp Alloy, Hardened Materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 857\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\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: 934-000-232\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690696376626,"sku":"934-000-232","price":32.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/163cfb175808d738941bb17dd1da5810.jpg?v=1788274109","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-934-000-232-ball-end-mill-0-045-in-2-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
