5mm Drill-Groove Cutter TiAlN-Coated Solid Carbide 3-Flute Long 15mm Effective Length, DIN 6527 - TECWERK

Take advantage of a VHM (solid carbide) body with TiAlN coating and a long, vibration‑reduced geometry for reliable slotting and finishing in demanding materials; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application guidance.

TECWERK slot drill DIN 6527L, Ø5 mm — VHM solid carbide, TiAlN-coated, 3-flute, long

The TECWERK slot drill is a long, three‑flute solid carbide cutter designed for vibration‑reduced slotting and universal milling tasks across steels, cast materials and non‑ferrous alloys.

• VHM solid carbide with TiAlN coating
• 3‑flute geometry with centre cutting
• 6 mm cylindrical shank, tolerance h6
• Long version for deep slotting

Consistent cutting performance through hard-wearing materials

The long design combines a VHM (solid carbide) core with a TiAlN surface to deliver thermal resistance and wear protection during extended machining cycles. This material and coating pairing reduces flank wear and helps retain cutting geometry at elevated temperatures, which contributes to longer tool life and more consistent component quality. The durable construction supports continuous production runs and reduces the frequency of tool changes, improving process uptime.

Secure clamping and stable machining for repeatable results

A 6 mm cylindrical shank manufactured to h6 tolerance and complying with DIN 6535 HB ensures precise clamping in standard toolholders and collets. The accurate shank diameter and tolerance minimise runout and improve concentricity, which in turn reduces vibration and tool chatter. Stable clamping translates into better surface finishes and tighter dimensional repeatability when machining slots and grooves in serial production or single setups.

Geometry optimised for roughing and finishing in one tool

The cutter’s 3‑flute layout with centre cutting capability and an unequal pitch reduces harmonic excitation and facilitates both material removal and fine finishing operations. A small 45° protection chamfer and an engineered neck relief allow secure entry into slots while preventing rubbing on the shank. The combination of a short cutting length 3 mm and an extended overall reach supports confined geometries and deeper features without compromising finish quality.

Broad material suitability for flexible workshop use

Thanks to the newly developed geometry and coating, the tool is rated very good for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and special alloys, and is also suitable for aluminium with silicon content and abrasive materials. This universality simplifies tooling inventories and allows one cutter to cover a wide range of tasks, from preparatory roughing to final finishing, offering economical flexibility for small shops and production lines alike.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for stainless steel machining?
The TECWERK slot drill is rated very good for stainless steel and its TiAlN coating helps resist heat build‑up when machining stainless grades.

Can the tool perform plunging cuts or only peripheral milling?
With its centre cutting geometry the cutter permits limited plunging operations as well as conventional slotting and peripheral milling.

What collet or holder diameter is required for this tool?
Use a clamping system compatible with a 6 mm shank to achieve correct concentricity; the shank is manufactured to h6 tolerance for secure gripping.

How does the TiAlN coating benefit the application?
The TiAlN layer increases thermal resistance and reduces adhesion of workpiece material, extending tool life and preserving cutting edges during continuous machining.

Is the cutter suitable for both roughing and finishing passes?
Yes — the geometry and unequal pitch are designed for a balance between material removal and surface finish, making the tool appropriate for roughing and finishing.
