Cleveland C40023 roughing end mill
The Cleveland C40023 is a three-flute roughing end mill designed for high-volume material removal in milling operations. It suits machinists and maintenance teams who need aggressive stock removal with reduced cutting forces. The powdered metal substrate supports productivity in general-purpose roughing applications. It is not for finish profiling or light finishing passes where a fine surface finish is the primary requirement.
Powdered metal construction with TiCN coating
The tool body uses powdered metal HSS-E for toughness and wear resistance in demanding cuts. A TiCN coating adds surface hardness and lubricity to extend tool life and improve chip evacuation. The Weldon flat shank provides secure clamping in standard end mill holders without slippage during heavy radial loads. No neck relief is featured, so the tool suits straightforward pocketing and slotting without deep-reach requirements.
1 inch diameter with 4 inch length of cut
This end mill presents a 1 inch milling diameter matched to a 1 inch shank diameter for rigid, concentric holding. The length of cut reaches 4 inches within an overall length of 6 1/2 inches, defining the maximum axial engagement available. Selecting this tool depends on matching these dimensions to the workpiece geometry and machine envelope. Buyers needing a different cutting diameter or shorter reach cannot use this specific model.

Questions about this item
What shank interface does the Cleveland C40023 use and what holder type does it require?
The Cleveland C40023 has a 1 in Weldon flat shank, so it fits a standard Weldon end-mill holder with a matching 1 in bore and a set-screw that locks onto the flat.
What are the overall length and length of cut, and how do they affect tool clearance?
Overall length is 6 1/2 in with a 4 in length of cut, giving 2 1/2 in of shank and neck clearance for holder engagement and workpiece reach.
How is the Cleveland C40023 secured in the holder, and what step is often missed?
Insert the Weldon flat shank fully into the holder, align the flat with the set-screw, then tighten the screw firmly on the flat — not on the round body — to prevent pull-out under heavy roughing loads.
