Roughing End Mill: 1/2" Dia, 4 Flutes, Single End, Cobalt MPN:723-5738

The roughing end mill is a powerful tool designed for rapid stock removal and creating rough surfaces on stainless steel, aluminum or other hard materials during heavy machining jobs requiring aggressive material removal while leaving a smooth surface finish for post-processing operations like polishing. With its single ended style design, it excels in slotting, profiling or plunging applications with ease, while its 1/2 diameter and 4 flutes increase cutting efficiency making it ideal for industries such as automotive, aerospace, or construction where precise fits are not critical but material removal rates demand powerful machining. Built from cobalt steel allows resistance to high temperatures ensuring durability under stress while keeping edge sharpness providing consistent and stable cutting performance for skilled operators or production lines that require frequent end mill replacements for improved productivity.
