With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter and a 1 inch length of cut (LOC), this tool removes material efficiently in slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling applications. The four-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality. The bright, uncoated finish suits general-purpose cutting where coating is not required. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers and manual mills select this end mill for its submicron carbide grade, which delivers wear resistance and edge retention across a range of workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for production and job-shop environments where a reliable general-purpose square end profile is needed. The straight cylindrical shank with a 0.5 inch diameter fits standard ER collets and end mill holders found on vertical machining centers, CNC routers, and knee mills. The 3 inch overall length (OAL) provides sufficient reach for typical cavity and contour work without excessive overhang. Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece without a pre-drilled pilot hole, adding versatility to the tool path.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction in a submicron material grade for extended tool life and edge stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour right-hand flutes with a 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip flow and smooth surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard collet chucks and end mill holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo chipbreaker geometry for clean, continuous cut profiles on full-length passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production end mill for CNC machining centers, knee mills, and manual vertical mills equipped with standard 0.5 inch collet or end mill holder tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's runout and torque specifications for the collet or holder being used. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool. Seat the shank to the recommended minimum engagement depth in the holder to prevent pullout under cutting loads. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for chips or runout before beginning a new operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Submicron\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\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: MT3290804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721096429874,"sku":"MT3290804","price":88.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7fdeeaea7068d0611312ccd6c76f4827_78e13d1f-4d43-4dfe-91d1-57921083069c.jpg?v=1788573466","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-mt3290804-square-end-mill-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
