TECWERK indexable milling cutter D 20 mm for SOMT 09T304 — nickel-plated, internal coolant

The TECWERK indexable milling cutter D 20 mm is a two-edged milling solution designed for precise face and slot milling, featuring internal coolant for improved chip evacuation and a nickel-plated surface for enhanced durability.

• Internal coolant for optimised chip evacuation
• Nickel-plated finish for corrosion resistance
• Compatible with SOMT 09T304 indexable inserts

Faster, cooler cutting with internal coolant

The combination of internal coolant and a compact cutting geometry reduces heat at the cutting edge and improves chip evacuation during interrupted or continuous cuts. The tool features a 20 mm shank with h6 tolerance and an effective 32 mm cutting length, delivering stable engagement for short to medium-depth milling operations. Internal coolant channels direct cutting fluid to the insert seat, which helps maintain tool life and sustain consistent cutting conditions over repeated index changes. For machining processes where temperature control and chip removal influence cycle time, this configuration supports higher productivity and fewer insert changes.

Secure clamping and a corrosion-resistant surface

A precisely ground 20 mm shank with h6 fit promotes reliable clamping in standard toolholders, reducing runout and vibration that would otherwise affect surface finish. The nickel-plated surface offers improved resistance to corrosion and eases handling in workshop environments, while the compact overall length (82 mm) balances rigidity and accessibility in confined setups. The design prioritises dimensional stability so that clamping accuracy translates directly into repeatable machining results and predictable tolerancing in series production.

Economical indexable system for flexible use

The cutter accepts SOMT 09T304 indexable inserts, enabling rapid insert changes and cost-effective reconditioning compared with solid-end mills. Indexable inserts allow targeted geometry selection for different materials and finishes, while the two-flute arrangement supports efficient chip flow in slotting and high-feed face milling. As an indexable solution, it reduces downtime: worn inserts are exchanged rather than the whole tool, which helps control tooling costs in routine production. For workshops seeking a balance between performance and operational economy, this configuration supports both short-run flexibility and longer production runs.

FAQ

What insert does this cutter use and is it included?
The cutter is specified for SOMT 09T304 indexable inserts; inserts are not listed as included and should be ordered separately if required.

Can the tool be used for both slotting and face milling?
Yes, the two-flute configuration and 90° geometry make the cutter suitable for both slotting and face milling operations when fitted with the appropriate SOMT 09T304 inserts.

How does the internal coolant improve performance?
Internal coolant delivers cutting fluid directly to the insert seat, which aids chip evacuation, reduces edge temperature and can extend insert life under demanding cutting conditions.

What tolerance is the shank manufactured to?
The shank is produced to a d h6 tolerance for secure and precise clamping in standard toolholders.

Is the tool surface treated for corrosion resistance?
The tool features a nickel-plated surface that enhances resistance to corrosion and improves handling longevity.
