10mm Solid Carbide End Mill DIN 844 HR 4-Flute Short 45° Chamfer ALCRONA-Coated HSS-Co PM, Weldon Shank - TECWERK

Robust HSS‑Co PM construction combined with an ALCRONA coating and a secure Weldon shank gives dependable wear resistance and precise clamping for demanding milling tasks. The conical flute root and four‑flute geometry increase stiffness for efficient machining of steels up to approx. 1400 N/mm² — order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or request advice from our consultants.

Schaftfräser DIN 844 Typ HR D.10mm — short HSS‑Co PM end mill with ALCRONA coating (TECWERK)

The Schaftfräser DIN 844 Typ HR D.10mm is a short, four‑flute HSS‑Co end mill designed for heavy‑duty milling of steel and stainless steel, featuring a Weldon shank with drive flat for secure tool holding and a centre‑cutting geometry for plunge operations

• HSS‑Co PM construction for long life
• ALCRONA coating for wear resistance
• Weldon shank with drive flat for secure clamping
• Centre‑cutting short design for plunge milling

High cutting performance where rigidity matters

The combination of HSS‑Co PM material and a strengthened flute root delivers a tool that resists deformation under load, providing consistent results in roughing and semi‑finishing operations. The short design and 4‑flute geometry reduce chatter and increase axial stiffness, which benefits cycle times and surface consistency when machining medium‑to‑high strength materials. These attributes translate into fewer tool changes and more predictable part tolerances in production runs.

Reliable wear resistance and machining versatility

An ALCRONA coating reduces friction and delays built‑up edge, extending the tool life in challenging applications. The cutter is specified for materials up to approx. 1400 N/mm² tensile strength, meaning it is particularly suited for steel, stainless steel (INOX) and castings, while non‑ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally suitable. The centre‑cutting capability allows safe plunging and pocket entry, widening the scope of geometries that can be produced with a single tool.

Secure clamping and consistent chip evacuation

The Weldon shank with drive flat provides positive torque transmission and reduces slippage in high‑torque operations. Combined with the conical flute root profile, chip flow is stabilised even under heavy material removal, which lowers the risk of premature tool failure. For workshops aiming to improve uptime, this design feature supports repeatable set‑ups and reduces rework.

Practical application and handling advantages

Compliant with DIN 844 Type HR, this short end mill is optimised for stability in confined tool‑overhang situations. The 45° protective chamfer on the cutting edges guards the tip during entry and transit, which is useful when working with interrupted cuts or cast surfaces. For procurement and process planning, the tool’s specification reduces uncertainty: its construction and geometry are chosen to balance removal rate and tool life for small‑batch and continuous production alike.

FAQ

What diameter and flute count does this end mill have?
This end mill is supplied with a 10 mm diameter and 4 flutes, optimised for rigidity and chip control in medium‑to‑heavy milling tasks.

Can the tool be used for plunge milling?
Yes, the centre‑cutting geometry allows safe plunging and pocket entry, so the cutter can perform both ramping and straight plunge operations.

Which materials are best suited to this cutter?
The cutter is particularly effective on steel, stainless steel (INOX) and castings up to around 1400 N/mm² tensile strength; non‑ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally suitable.

How does the Weldon shank improve performance?
The Weldon shank with drive flat ensures secure clamping and reliable torque transmission, reducing the risk of slippage during high‑torque milling.

What advantages does the ALCRONA coating provide?
The ALCRONA coating lowers friction, reduces built‑up edge and extends tool life, especially under elevated temperatures and adhesive wear conditions.
