Decoding the part number: VHMM = Variable Helix Multi-Flute Mill, 040 = 0.040 in (1\/8 in shank \/ cutting diameter), 5 = 5 flutes, K = TiB2 (titanium diboride) coating — a hard, low-friction, dark\/black coating optimized for dry milling and non-ferrous\/hardened steel applications; the black appearance visible in photos confirms the TiB2 coating. The 5-flute variable-helix geometry suppresses chatter harmonics and increases metal removal rates versus standard equal-helix designs, while the corner radius (per the VHMM-series spec) adds edge strength and reduces corner chipping in ferrous and hardened workpiece materials. This tool accepts standard 1\/8 in collet or end mill holders (ER11, ER16, or equivalent) and is manufactured in Boise, Idaho to Micro 100's tight tolerances under their \"Super Carbide\" submicron-grain substrate standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;color:#56555b;border-bottom:2px solid #85c94f;padding-bottom:6px;\"\u003eProduct
