Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, this cutter delivers heat and wear resistance suitable for cutting harder ferrous materials where standard HSS tooling falls short. The 1\/2-inch cutting diameter and 1\/4-inch cutting width are sized for dovetail slot work in small-to-medium fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies. The 3\/8-inch shank diameter fits standard collet chucks and end mill holders on most vertical milling machines and machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cutter is intended for use on vertical knee mills, CNC machining centers, and similar milling platforms where dovetail slide features, T-slot undercuts, or angled retaining grooves are required. Typical applications include toolroom work, fixture fabrication, and production machining of steel, cast iron, and similar alloys. The 1-7\/8-inch shank length provides adequate reach for most standard setups without excessive overhang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree included angle for standard dovetail slot profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for improved hot hardness and wear resistance over standard M2 HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch cutting diameter suited for small-to-medium dovetail slot applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch cutting width for controlled material removal in a single pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch shank diameter compatible with standard collet chucks and end mill holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-7\/8-inch shank length provides stable tool engagement with minimal overhang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 3\/8-inch collet chucks and end mill holders on vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers capable of running HSS dovetail cutters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the 3\/8-inch shank fully into the collet or tool holder and torque the drawbar or collet nut according to the machine manufacturer specification before engaging the cut. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for cobalt HSS tooling in the workpiece material before initiating the cut. Inspect the cutter for chipping or wear before each use and replace if cutting edges are degraded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Material Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: DC4504CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711788745010,"sku":"DC4504CO","price":53.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/866869f1d0272031e5450f7e05439360.jpg?v=1788479591","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-dc4504co-dovetail-cutter-45-deg-cobalt-m42","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
