TECWERK slot drill DIN 6527 K, 16 mm – solid carbide, TiAlN-coated

TECWERK slot drill DIN 6527 K, 16 mm is a short, two‑flute centre‑cutting slot drill designed for vibration‑reduced slotting, plunge cuts and finishing across a wide range of materials

• Solid carbide, universal fine-grain
• TiAlN coating for heat resistance
• Centre-cutting, two-flute short design
• H6 shank Ø16 mm with neck relief for low vibration

Faster material removal with reliable surface finish

The combination of solid carbide substrate and TiAlN coating enables higher cutting speeds and improved wear resistance, so the cutter maintains edge integrity during extended runs. The centre‑cutting geometry allows occasional plunge operations without a secondary tool, reducing cycle time for interrupted cuts and pocketing. With two flutes, chip evacuation is optimised for slotting operations, delivering a consistent surface finish while keeping cutting forces manageable for short‑reach applications.

Stable running and reduced chatter for precise tolerances

A dedicated neck relief and dynamic helix provide a controlled engagement that reduces harmonics during machining. This results in vibration‑reduced performance even when working on longer overhangs relative to the cutting zone, so dimensional stability and repeatability improve. The short version of the tool further minimises deflection, making it suited to both roughing passes where material removal rate matters and light finishing cuts where tolerance is critical.

Broad material capability to minimise tool changes

The geometry and coating combination make the cutter suitable for an extensive material range: steel, cast iron, tempered cast, Cr‑Ni steels, stainless (INOX), non‑ferrous metals, aluminium with silicon content, abrasive materials and special alloys. That universality reduces the need for multiple tool types in mixed‑material workshops and supports efficient job sequencing on small to medium CNC mills.

Precise shank interface and standards compliance for quick setup

A cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB with h6 tolerance and a nominal shank diameter of 16 mm ensures firm clamping and concentricity in standard toolholders. The tool conforms to DIN 6527 K, Type N, which simplifies tool selection and documentation for quality‑orientated production environments. The 45° protective chamfer and a short cutting length support safe engagement and predictable cutting behaviour at standard feed and speed settings for slotting and finishing operations using the TECWERK slot drill.
