TECWERK Keyway Milling Cutter DIN 327 Type N, 14 mm – HSS‑Co8, 3‑flute, short, Weldon shank

A Keyway Milling Cutter DIN 327 Type N (14 mm) engineered for accurate face and peripheral milling of deeper keyways in steel and cast iron.

• HSS‑Co8 material for high wear resistance
• DIN 327 Type N, three‑flute short design
• Weldon 12 mm shank with drive flat
• Suitable for deep keyways in steel and cast iron

Increase throughput with consistent cutting performance

The short, three‑flute geometry combined with HSS‑Co8 substrate delivers a balance of rigidity and edge retention that reduces chatter and extends tool life under intermittent loads. The centre cutting geometry permits plunge entry and controlled ramping, making the cutter well suited to operations where both face and peripheral machining are required. Designed for work in materials of low to medium strength up to approximately 800 N/mm² uncoated and up to 1000 N/mm² when using coated variants, the tool supports stable cycle times and predictable regrinding intervals.

Precise keyway profiles with reduced rework

A dedicated design for keyway shaping ensures accurate profiles even at increased depths. The cutter’s centre cut enables clean beginnings to slots while the three‑cut arrangement maintains a constant chip load, which helps to avoid over‑cutting and subsequent finishing passes. For workshops where repeatability matters, this geometry produces reproducible slot dimensions and surface quality, reducing downstream fitting and assembly corrections.

Secure clamping and improved runout control

Stable mounting is provided by the Weldon shank, featuring a 12 mm shank with a drive flat and an 11.5 mm free section to aid secure collet or holder engagement. This mechanical interface minimises lateral movement and helps control runout, which in turn preserves tolerance adherence and cutting-edge life. A robust shank connection also supports higher radial forces encountered during deeper keyway cuts, improving both tool life and part quality.

Versatile material suitability for workshop tasks

Material compatibility is a key advantage: the cutter shows very good performance in steel and cast iron, while non‑ferrous metals and INOX are conditionally suited depending on cutting data and coolant strategy. The short design combines chip evacuation advantages with mechanical stability, making the tool a pragmatic choice for general workshop and production environments where a compact, reliable solution for deeper keyways is required.

FAQ

What materials is this cutter best suited for?
The TECWERK keyway milling cutter is rated very good for steel and cast iron and is conditionally suitable for non‑ferrous metals and INOX depending on cutting data.

Can this tool be used for plunge cutting into a slot?
Yes, the centre cutting geometry allows plunge entries; the three‑flute design maintains chip control during initial entry and ramping.

What shank interface is required for secure mounting?
A holder or collet that accommodates a 12 mm Weldon shank with drive flat is required to ensure correct clamping and to control runout.

Is the cutter suitable for deep keyways and repeated production runs?
The short, rigid design and three‑edge geometry are intended for deeper keyways and support repeatable production with consistent slot geometry.
