End mill DIN 844 Type N, 10 mm – TECWERK (HSS‑Co PM, ALCRONA)

The End mill DIN 844 Type N is a long, four‑flute milling cutter engineered for productive machining of steels and stainless steels with centre‑cutting capability for plunge and peripheral operations.

• HSS‑Co PM core with ALCRONA coating
• Long 4‑flute design for stable axial engagement
• Weldon flat on cylindrical shank for secure clamping
• Vibration reduction via uneven flute spacing

High material capability for demanding steel work

The tool is built around a powder‑metal HSS‑Co substrate that combines toughness with wear resistance; this makes it particularly suited to machining medium‑strength steels and stainless steel up to roughly 1000 N/mm². The ALCRONA coating reduces friction and improves tool life under repeated thermal and mechanical load, translating into fewer tool changes and higher machine uptime. The centre‑cutting ability permits safe plunging, while the long length supports reach into deeper features without immediate loss of stability.

Geometry designed to reduce chatter and improve surface finish

Unequal flute division and a tapered gullet bottom provide vibration reduction and enhanced chip evacuation, which stabilises the cut and helps achieve a consistent surface finish. The four‑flute layout balances feed per tooth and chip load for efficient material removal on peripheral passes. The combination of these features results in smoother cutting behaviour and predictable tool performance, an advantage when processing workpieces where repeatability is crucial.

Secure mounting and reliable handling for workshop continuity

A cylindrical shank with Weldon flat ensures solid clamping in standard holders, reducing the risk of slippage during heavy cuts. The right‑hand cutting direction and standard DIN 844 Type N geometry allow straightforward programming and tool change procedures in common milling centres. Together, the long overall length and effective cutting length make this cutter suitable for operations requiring deeper reach, while the improved tool stiffness contributes to dimensional stability across production runs.

Practical benefits and operational considerations

Operators will appreciate the clear material suitability: very good for steel and cast materials, very good for inox (stainless steel), and conditionally suitable for non‑ferrous metals and special alloys. The tool’s centre‑cutting design supports plunge operations, reducing the need for separate drills in many setups. For best results, match cutting parameters to material strength and machine rigidity; the coated surface allows competitive cutting speeds while maintaining edge life.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for plunge milling into stainless steel?
The End mill DIN 844 Type N from TECWERK is centre cutting and therefore suitable for plunge milling into stainless steel; refer to SKU 2000866045NW for exact dimensions.

What materials does this tool handle best?
The HSS‑Co PM substrate with ALCRONA coating makes the cutter very well suited for steel and cast materials, and very good for stainless steel; non‑ferrous and special alloys are conditionally suitable.

How should the cutter be clamped?
Use a secure holder with accommodation for the Weldon flat on the cylindrical shank to prevent slippage and ensure reliable torque transmission during heavy cuts.

Can this tool reduce machining vibrations compared with standard end mills?
Yes, the uneven flute spacing and tapered gullet design of this TECWERK tool help reduce vibrations and improve surface finish during high‑engagement milling.

Is the 4 mm cutting length a limitation for deeper pockets?
The 4 mm cutting length defines the effective radial/axial engagement; for deeper material removal, consider multiple passes or an alternative tool with a longer cutting length.
