TECWERK keyway cutter DIN 327D Type N, 2 mm — HSS‑Co8, TiCN-coated, Weldon shank

The TECWERK keyway cutter DIN 327D Type N is a short, two‑flute, TiCN‑coated HSS‑Co8 cutter designed for precision milling of narrow and deep keyways and form‑accurate fits in steels and cast materials.

• HSS‑Co8 substrate for high toughness
• TiCN coating for superior wear resistance
• Two‑flute short design for precise keyways
• Weldon shank, 6 mm, with drive flat

Longer tool life through material and coating

The combination of HSS‑Co8 substrate and TiCN coating delivers a measurable improvement in wear resistance and thermal stability during interrupted cuts. The cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel provides increased red hardness and toughness compared with conventional HSS, while the titanium‑carbonitride layer reduces abrasive wear and adhesion. For production environments that require repeatable tool life and fewer tool changes, this composition supports longer operating intervals without compromising surface quality.

Precise slotting for narrow and deep keyways

The short two‑flute geometry with centre cutting capability is optimised for milling narrow, form‑accurate fits and deeper keyseats with reduced chatter and improved dimensional control. The cutting geometry concentrates rigidity close to the cutting edge, which benefits concentricity and reduces deflection in small‑diameter operations. This design is particularly suitable where tolerance adherence and surface finish are critical, enabling consistent results when machining steels and stainless steels under moderate cutting conditions.

Secure clamping and reliable chip evacuation

Equipped with a Weldon shank and a 6 mm shank diameter, the tool ensures positive drive transmission and reliable clamping in holders with a drive flat. The two‑flute arrangement aids chip evacuation in tighter slots and minimises clogging during deeper passes. Right‑hand cutting and centre‑cut capability make the cutter versatile for plunge and peripheral milling operations. For applications up to approximately 1000 N/mm² tensile strength, the cutter provides a robust balance of edge stability and accessibility for precision keyway finishing. If clarification on specific machining parameters is required, Metav’s technical advisors are available to assist.

FAQ

Which materials is this cutter suitable for?
The TECWERK keyway cutter is rated very good for steel, stainless steel (INOX) and cast iron, and conditionally suitable for non‑ferrous metals and special alloys; the tool is specified for applications up to about 1000 N/mm².

What is the shank type and diameter?
The tool features a Weldon shank with a 6 mm diameter and a drive flat to ensure secure clamping in appropriate toolholders.

Is the cutter suitable for deep keyways and precise fits?
Yes, the short two‑flute design with centre cutting is specifically intended for milling narrow, form‑accurate fits and deeper keyseats with improved dimensional control.

How many flutes and what cutting direction does the tool have?
The cutter has two flutes and is right‑hand cutting; it also provides a centre cut for plunge operations.

What benefit does the TiCN coating provide?
The TiCN coating increases surface hardness and reduces abrasive wear, improving tool life and performance in interrupted cuts compared with uncoated tools.
