Slot drill DIN 6527L Typ N – TECWERK (Ø 6 mm, solid carbide, TiAlN)

Slot drill DIN 6527L Typ N is a two‑flute, centre‑cutting solid carbide tool designed for vibration‑reduced slotting and versatile milling across steels and non‑ferrous alloys.

• Solid carbide with TiAlN coating for high wear resistance
• Centre‑cutting two‑flute geometry for through machining
• 6 mm shank, 20 mm effective length, 57 mm overall
• Vibration‑reduced design with 45° chamfer for stability

Longer tool life through heat‑resistant coating

The combination of solid carbide substrate and TiAlN surface treatment gives a demonstrable improvement in thermal stability and oxidation resistance under elevated cutting temperatures. This results in prolonged tool life and steadier performance when machining demanding alloys. The high‑temperature tolerance of the coating supports longer uninterrupted cycles and reduces frequent tool changes, which enhances throughput and lowers setup interruptions.

Consistent chip control and reliable slotting

The centre‑cutting two‑flute profile and the dynamic helix ensure dependable chip evacuation and stable cutting forces, particularly important for through‑slotting operations. The reduced flute count improves chip clearance for long, continuous cuts, while the centre‑cut capability allows plunge‑cutting where necessary. Together these features deliver reproducible slot geometry and minimise rework, supporting efficient production runs and predictable cycle times.

Wide material suitability for flexible production

Engineered for a broad range of materials, the cutter is very well suited for steel, stainless steel and non‑ferrous metals, and retains performance in cast and special alloys. The geometry and coating make the cutter applicable for both roughing and finishing passes, enabling flexible use across job types from heavy material removal to precision face‑off. This versatility reduces tooling inventory and simplifies job planning on mixed‑material work orders.

Precise shank and geometry for machine stability

Practical design details support accurate clamping and low‑vibration operation: a 6 mm shank with h6 tolerance, 20 mm effective length, and 57 mm overall length provide secure tool holding and predictable overhang. The 45° chamfer (0.12 mm) and 5.8 mm relief contribute to reduced edge chatter and smoother engagement, while the right‑hand cutting direction matches standard spindle orientations. These engineering choices translate into steadier surface finishes and longer insert intervals.
