Bohrnutenfräser DIN 844 Type N, Ø18 mm — HSS‑Co8, TiCN, Weldon shank (TECWERK)

The Bohrnutenfräser DIN 844 Type N is a long, centre‑cutting slot cutter for milling operations in steels and stainless alloys, designed for use with a Weldon‑style shank.

HSS‑Co with TiCN coating for wear resistance
Weldon shank with 16 mm diameter
Centre‑cutting three‑flute geometry
Long version for deep slotting and bore milling

High performance where material strength matters

This long‑reach three‑flute cutter combines a HSS‑Co substrate with a TiCN coating to extend tool life and maintain cutting performance when machining tougher materials. The centre‑cutting geometry enables plunging and slotting without pre‑drilling, while the three cutting edges preserve good chip formation and stability. For operations that demand repeatable results in stainless steel and cast iron, the tool offers consistent edge life and reduced downtime.

Secure clamping and precise machining for repeatable parts

A Weldon shank (16 mm) with drive flat provides secure clamping in holders and prevents slippage under heavy feed, which supports higher metal removal rates and stable surface finish. The tool’s long design and effective cutting length balance accessibility for deeper features with sufficient rigidity for accurate profiling. Users benefit from fewer tool changes and improved process reliability, especially in small series and jobbing work.

Practical suitability and machining guidance

Designed according to DIN standards, the cutter is suitable for materials up to the stated strength classes when used with the appropriate coating: uncoated tools for materials up to ~800 N/mm² and coated tools for up to ~1,000 N/mm². The right‑hand cutting direction and centre‑cutting tip make the cutter versatile for both slot milling and limited drilling tasks. When selecting cutting speeds and feeds, consider the substrate and workpiece condition; the coated version helps reduce built‑up edge and can allow more aggressive feeds in many steels.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for stainless steel machining?
Yes. The cutter is specified as very well suited for stainless steel; the TiCN coating improves performance on inox materials and helps reduce adhesion.

Can the tool perform plunging operations without pre‑drilling?
Yes. The centre‑cutting geometry allows limited plunging and slotting, making it suitable for combined drilling and milling tasks in appropriate applications.

What shank size and clamping are required?
The tool has a 16 mm Weldon shank; holders compatible with a 16 mm shank and Weldon drive flat are recommended to ensure secure clamping.

Which SKU identifies this exact item?
The cutter is listed under SKU 2000866262NW and is the TECWERK long, three‑flute slot cutter with TiCN coating.

What materials and strength ranges are recommended?
The cutter is optimised for steels and stainless alloys; uncoated use is suitable up to approximately 800 N/mm², while the TiCN‑coated version can be used up to around 1,000 N/mm².
