Value Collection SWC0860HS Double Angle Milling Cutter Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SWC0860HS is a double angle milling cutter designed for machining symmetrical angular grooves, chamfers, and dovetail features on milling machines. Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this cutter delivers reliable performance across a range of general-purpose cutting applications. It features a 1 inch cut diameter, a 5/16 inch cutting width, and a 60-degree included angle. The 1/2 inch straight shank mounts directly into standard milling machine collets or arbors. Overall length is 2-27/32 inches, keeping the tool compact for accurate setups in both manual and CNC milling environments. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary installers of this tool type.

This double angle milling cutter is suited for use on vertical and horizontal milling machines in job shop, production, and maintenance machining environments. It is appropriate for cutting angular grooves and serrations in ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials where a 60-degree included angle is specified. The uncoated high speed steel construction makes it a practical choice for lower-speed cuts and situations where regrinding is preferred over coated tooling. No specific compatible machine models are stated by the manufacturer for this cutter.

Key Features

• 60-degree included angle for precise symmetrical groove and chamfer cutting
• 1 inch cut diameter provides adequate radial reach for most angular milling operations
• 5/16 inch cutting width allows controlled groove depth in a single pass
• High speed steel construction supports regrinding and extended tool life in lower-speed applications
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating to delaminate during resharpening
• 1/2 inch straight shank fits standard collets and milling arbors

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-shank double angle milling cutter for use in any milling machine or machining center equipped with a 1/2 inch collet or compatible arbor system.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist following standard milling machine setup procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or removing the cutter. Secure the 1/2 inch shank firmly in the collet or arbor to the tool holding system manufacturer specifications before beginning any cut. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use, as high speed steel tooling is subject to edge degradation if run at excessive speeds or feeds.
