TECWERK End mill DIN 6527L Type W, Ø 3 mm – solid carbide, TiAlN-coated

A TECWERK end mill DIN 6527L Type W designed for reliable roughing and finishing of aluminium, copper and other non‑ferrous metals, featuring a long shank and centre‑cutting geometry for plunge capability

• Solid carbide with TiAlN coating
• 45° helix and centre‑cutting, 2 flutes
• Long shank, DIN 6535 HB compatible
• Suited for aluminium and non‑ferrous metals

Efficient cutting performance with reduced adhesion

The long solid‑carbide cutter combines VHM (solid carbide) construction with a special TiAlN coating, which significantly reduces the risk of chip adhesion and soldering on the cutting edges. This results in steadier cutting forces and longer tool life, especially when machining sticky materials such as aluminium alloys. The centre‑cutting geometry enables safe plunge cuts and shortens setup time for operations that require entry from the face.

Geometry designed for stable chips and fast material removal

A 45° helix and two flutes deliver an excellent balance between axial engagement and chip evacuation. The steeper helix promotes smooth chip flow, reducing vibration during both roughing and finishing passes. In combination with the 0.1 mm chamfer on the cutting edge, the geometry helps prevent edge chipping and burr formation, so surface quality improves without sacrificing material removal rates.

Compatibility and secure clamping for production environments

Manufactured to DIN 6527L with a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB, the cutter fits common collet systems and toolholders used across workshops and production lines. The long version offers extra reach for deep features or fixturing constraints while the neck relief reduces contact in tight pockets, preventing unwanted rubbing and heat build‑up. This makes the tool a dependable choice for repeatable, measurable results in series production.

Practical application advice for non‑ferrous machining

Optimised for aluminium, copper and other non‑ferrous metals, the cutter performs well for both roughing and finishing passes. The centre‑cutting capability supports spiral plunging where required; for best results, moderate cutting speeds combined with appropriate coolant or compressed air for chip clearance are recommended. The TiAlN surface treatment supports consistent performance by reducing built‑up edge during prolonged runs.

Small details that matter in daily work

Features such as right‑hand cutting, precise flute geometry and a specially treated surface minimise rework and downtime. The long shank and DIN compliance simplify tool changeover and integration into existing tooling systems, while the coating and edge chamfer reduce maintenance frequency. These practical advantages support stable processes and predictable outcomes on the shop floor.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for plunge cutting and slotting?
The cutter’s centre‑cutting geometry and two‑flute design allow plunge cuts and limited slotting; the TECWERK end mill DIN 6527L Type W supports controlled entry from the face when set up correctly.

Which materials are recommended for this tool?
This solid‑carbide cutter is optimised for aluminium, copper and other non‑ferrous metals, providing good resistance to built‑up edge thanks to the TiAlN coating.

How does the 45° helix affect machining?
A 45° helix improves chip evacuation and produces smoother cutting forces, which helps when switching between roughing and finishing operations on ductile non‑ferrous materials.

Is the shank compatible with standard collets?
Yes, the long cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB ensures compatibility with common collet chucks and toolholders used in production environments.
