TECWERK DIN 844 Type N 10 mm HSS‑Co8 Shank End Mill — 4‑flute, Weldon

TECWERK DIN 844 Type N 10 mm HSS‑Co8 Shank End Mill is a short, centre‑cut, four‑flute milling cutter designed for precise milling of steel and cast iron in both workshop and production environments.

• HSS‑Co8 for improved heat resistance
• Four‑flute geometry for smooth surface finish
• Weldon shank for positive clamping
• Centre‑cut design for plunge capability

Reliable material performance for throughput and repeatability

The HSS‑Co8 specification delivers elevated red hardness and wear resistance compared with standard high‑speed steels, which supports stable cutting in medium‑duty production. Conforming to DIN 844 Type N, the tool’s geometry and 4‑flute configuration are tuned to balance metal removal and surface quality, so machining cycles remain efficient without sacrificing repeatability. The construction is particularly suitable for steel up to 800 N/mm² in uncoated form, providing a transparent basis for process planning.

Clear benefits in chip control and surface finish

A centre‑cut profile enables controlled plunging, while the four cutting edges reduce radial cutting forces for a finer machined surface. The combination of right‑hand cut and precise flute spacing minimises vibration and promotes consistent chip evacuation in slotting and peripheral milling operations. For workshops that prioritise finish and dimensional control, this geometry reduces secondary operations and improves first‑pass acceptance rates.

Practical clamping and handling for faster set‑ups

The Weldon shank (cylindrical shank with drive flat) guarantees a secure, positive clamping interface in standard toolholders and reduces the risk of slippage during interrupted cuts. With a 10 mm diameter and an overall length 72 mm, the tool offers a compact footprint for close‑quarters fixturing while the effective length 30 mm supports reach into tighter setups. These mechanical properties simplify tool change routines and shorten machine downtime.

Application scope and workshop compatibility

This short shank end mill is a pragmatic choice for mixed‑purpose shops processing a range of materials: very good performance on steel and cast iron, with conditional suitability for non‑ferrous metals and stainless steels as noted in the technical specifications. Uncoated by default, the cutter is optimised for manual and CNC operations up to a practical strength threshold; coating options can extend capacity where increased surface hardness is present. The tool’s compact design suits both serial production and job‑shop tasks where reliability counts.

FAQ

Which materials is this cutter best suited for?
The TECWERK DIN 844 Type N 10 mm shank end mill is very well suited to steel and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals and stainless steel are conditionally suitable as stated in the product data.

Can this end mill plunge into material?
Yes, the centre‑cut design enables plunge capability so the tool can be used for indexed pocketing and limited plunging operations.

What clamping system is recommended for reliable use?
Use toolholders that accept a Weldon shank with a drive flat; the Weldon interface on this TECWERK cutter secures positive clamping and reduces slippage under interrupted cuts.

Is the cutter supplied with a coating for higher strength materials?
This specific item is uncoated; machining up to approximately 800 N/mm² is recommended for the uncoated tool, while coated grades extend suitability up to around 1000 N/mm².

How many cutting edges and what finish can be expected?
The tool has four flutes, which promotes a smoother surface finish and balanced cutting forces for many finishing and semi‑finishing passes.
