Slot Milling Cutter DIN 6527K Type N, Ø8 mm – Solid Carbide, TiAlN-coated (TECWERK)

A Slot Milling Cutter DIN 6527K Type N designed for short, centre‑cutting slotting and finishing across steels, cast materials and non‑ferrous metals

• Solid carbide VHM construction
• TiAlN coating for extended tool life
• Centre‑cutting, two‑flute design
• Cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB, Ø8 mm

High performance from carbide and TiAlN for longer runs

The combination of solid carbide (VHM) body and TiAlN surface treatment delivers a tool that resists wear and tolerates higher cutting temperatures, allowing longer uninterrupted production stretches. The short, two‑flute centre‑cutting geometry permits reliable plunge entry and fast slotting operations, while the coating reduces built‑up edge formation on abrasive alloys. For routine machining this means fewer tool changes and more consistent part quality, improving process throughput without compromising surface finish.

Stable cutting geometry for low vibration and accurate slots

A dynamically pitched, two‑flute layout with neck relief (freischliff 7.7 mm) and a short overall length offers vibration‑reduced performance in both roughing and finishing cycles. The tool’s short version and 45° chamfer protect the cutting edge during entry and exit, reducing burr formation and improving repeatability. This geometry is particularly advantageous for small‑diameter slotting where chatter can otherwise compromise dimensional accuracy and cause premature tool wear.

Broad material compatibility for flexible production planning

The tool is engineered for universal application: very good suitability for steel, stainless steel (INOX), cast materials, non‑ferrous metals and special alloys, as well as aluminium with silicon content and abrasive materials. The chemistry and microstructure of VHM combined with the TiAlN layer maintain hardness and edge stability across varied materials, enabling fewer tool variants on the shelf and simpler tool management for mixed production runs.

Practical shank and standards for quick tool integration

Designed with a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB (Ø8 mm) and shaft tolerance h6, the cutter fits standard toolholders with minimal setup effort. Key dimensions such as effective length (20 mm), overall length (58 mm) and cutting length (2 mm) support compact clamping and secure holding for precise slot depths. The small protection chamfer (0.12 mm) and centre‑cutting capability make the tool straightforward to apply in machining centres and automated cells, simplifying process planning and reducing set‑up time.

FAQ

What materials can this cutter machine effectively?
The slot milling cutter is suitable for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non‑ferrous metals, special alloys and aluminium with silicon; the combination of VHM and TiAlN supports machining of abrasive and demanding materials.

Is the cutter suitable for plunge cutting?
Yes, the cutter’s centre‑cutting two‑flute design permits reliable plunge entry for slotting and reduced need for pre‑drilling.

What shank standard and tolerance does the tool use?
The cutter features a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB with h6 tolerance and an 8 mm diameter for secure clamping in standard holders.

How does the TiAlN coating benefit production?
TiAlN increases thermal resistance and reduces wear, extending tool life and allowing higher cutting parameters for improved productivity and fewer tool changes.
