TECWERK Slot Drill DIN 6527 K, Ø16 mm — Solid Carbide, TiAlN-coated

The TECWERK slot drill DIN 6527 K is a short, three‑edged slot drill with centre‑cutting geometry and a cylindrical shank to deliver stiff, precise cutting in demanding machining tasks

• Solid carbide, TiAlN-coated
• Centre‑cutting for plunging
• Suitable for steel and stainless steel
• Unequal pitch for reduced vibration

Precision geometry that reduces tool wear and set-up time

The combination of solid carbide substrate and TiAlN coating gives a hard, thermally resistant cutting edge that extends tool life in interrupted and continuous cuts. The short, three‑edge design with a centre‑cutting tip enables safe plunging without specialised pilot drills, reducing overall set‑up time. Because the cutter is designed to be inherently rigid, chatter is minimised and tool life is extended, which translates directly into lower tooling costs per part and fewer stoppages for tool changes.

Consistent chip formation across a wide material range

Thanks to a carefully developed geometry with unequal pitch, the cutter breaks and evacuates chips reliably even in mixed‑material production batches. The tool is specified for machining steel and stainless steel, cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and aluminium with silicon, making it suitable for shops that need one versatile cutter for both roughing and finishing. For uses where abrasive or alloyed materials occur, the TiAlN coating helps preserve cutting edges and maintain dimensional stability over extended cycles.

Standardised shank and practical handling for repeatable results

Designed with a DIN 6535 HB cylindrical shank and a 16 mm shank diameter with h6 tolerance, the cutter fits common toolholders with high concentricity for repeatable accuracy. A relief length of 15.5 mm and a protective 45° chamfer (0.2 mm) at the cutting margin reduce the risk of edge damage during handling and regripping. The short form factor and neck relief enable rigid clamping for high‑feed operations while still supporting final finishing passes — specified for both roughing and finishing tasks for efficient process consolidation.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for plunging operations? The TECWERK slot drill is centre‑cutting, so it is suitable for controlled plunging operations without a separate pilot hole.

Which materials can this tool machine reliably? This cutter is specified for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and aluminium with silicon, and its geometry supports both roughing and finishing in these materials.

What measures reduce vibration during machining? The unequal pitch and short, rigid design of the tool reduce harmonic build‑up; the TiAlN coating also helps maintain edge stability under load.

What shank specifications ensure accurate mounting? The tool has a 16 mm shank with h6 tolerance and a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB for consistent clamping concentricity.

Can this cutter be used for finishing as well as roughing? Yes. The geometry and coating make the cutter suitable for both roughing and finishing passes, depending on cutting parameters.
