Slot drill DIN 6527L Type N, Ø 6 mm — solid carbide, TiAlN-coated (TECWERK)

A Slot drill DIN 6527L Type N, Ø 6 mm designed for universal milling tasks, offering centre cutting capability and a long shank for vibration‑reduced operations in steels, castings and non‑ferrous alloys

• TiAlN-coated fine-grain solid carbide
• 3-flute, centre-cutting geometry for plunge milling
• Long design with neck relief for vibration damping
• Universal for steel, cast, INOX and non‑ferrous metals

Consistent cutting performance for mixed materials

The TiAlN coating on the fine‑grain solid carbide substrate provides thermal stability and superior wear resistance during prolonged engagement. This improves tool life and maintains cutting geometry under higher thermal loads, which translates into fewer tool changes and steadier process times. The three‑flute centre cutting design allows for limited plunge operations while delivering stable chip evacuation, making the cutter suitable for both roughing and finishing passes in steels, cast materials and a wide range of non‑ferrous alloys.

Cleaner surfaces and reduced vibrations for higher throughput

An unequal pitch and deliberately dimensioned neck relief reduce harmonic excitation, delivering smoother cutting action and better surface finish on the workpiece. The tool’s long overall length combined with a targeted free‑cut length provides access to recessed features while maintaining rigidity where it matters. The integrated 45° chamfer and a small protection chamfer (0.12 mm) at the cutting edge help to avoid edge chipping and support consistent entry characteristics, which benefits cycle stability in serial production.

Simple integration with common toolholders and machines

The cutter features a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB with shank Ø 6 mm and tolerance h6, ensuring precise clamping and repeatable concentricity in standard collet systems. As a DIN‑compliant long Type N tool, the slot cutter meets common workshop standards for interchangeability and mounting. The right‑hand cutting direction and the specified effective cutting length make the tool straightforward to program into existing milling cycles without additional compensations.

Operational efficiency and predictable results

Thanks to the tool’s optimised geometry and robust coating, machining cycles show improved cost efficiency: fewer interruptions for tool changes and predictable surface quality reduce rework. The combination of short cutting length and effective length 20 mm provides control over chip volume and heat generation, while the long overall length supports access to deeper features. The cutter is therefore a practical choice for workshops and production lines seeking a balance between performance and handling convenience.

FAQ

What materials can be machined with this slot drill?
The TECWERK slot drill (SKU 2000866285NW) is suitable for steel, cast iron, temper cast, Cr‑Ni steels, stainless steel, non‑ferrous metals including aluminium‑silicon alloys, abrasive materials and special alloys, providing a versatile option for mixed‑material production.

Is the cutter able to perform plunge cuts?
Yes — the cutter’s centre‑cutting geometry allows limited plunge milling; however, the defined cutting length of 3 mm should be observed when programming plunge depths to maintain tool life and process stability.

Which shank and holder systems are compatible?
The tool has a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB with Ø 6 mm and tolerance h6, making it compatible with conventional collet chucks and holders that accept DIN‑HB cylindrical shanks, ensuring accurate clamping and concentricity.

How does the TiAlN coating improve performance?
The TiAlN coating increases hardness at elevated temperatures and reduces adhesion of workpiece material to the cutting edges, slowing flank wear and allowing more consistent cuts over longer cycles with fewer unexpected tool changes.

What machining tasks suit this cutter best?
This long, three‑flute slot cutter is designed for vibration‑reduced roughing and finishing in production and small‑series environments, particularly where access to deeper features and a balanced chip evacuation capacity are required.
