16mm Cylindrical End Mill HSS-Co8 TiCN 4-Flute Short 4mm Cutting Length DIN 844 - TECWERK

Take advantage of the combination of high cutting performance and enhanced wear resistance provided by the TiCN coating and HSS‑Co8 substrate for reliable short‑run milling and finishing. Order the end mill directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

TECWERK end mill DIN 844 Type N — 16 mm, HSS‑Co8, TiCN, Weldon, 4‑flute (short)

The TECWERK end mill DIN 844 Type N 16 mm is a short, centre‑cutting cylindrical cutter designed for high‑rigidity machining of steel, stainless steel and cast iron in precision milling applications.

• TiCN coating for improved wear resistance
• HSS‑Co8 construction for higher heat resistance
• Weldon shank for secure clamping
• Short, rigid design for reduced chatter

High performance for demanding steel and stainless machining

The short, rigid geometry combined with a HSS‑Co8 substrate and TiCN surface treatment delivers a dependable balance of toughness and wear resistance. The 4‑flute configuration supports efficient chip evacuation while preserving edge strength, so cutting forces remain consistent even in interrupted cuts. Conformity to DIN 844 (Type N) ensures recognised dimensional standards, and the centre‑cutting design enables plunging as well as conventional milling tasks. The result is improved tool life and predictable performance when working on medium‑strength steels and inox.

Stable clamping and reduced vibration for finer surface finish

A Weldon shank with drive flat and a short overall length increase clamping security and minimise overhang, translating into better rigidity and less vibration. The limited cutting length and an effective length engineered for shop‑floor conditions favour fine finishing and slotting operations where surface quality matters. Right‑hand cutting geometry provides conventional chip flow and familiar cutting behaviour across most milling machines, reducing setup iterations and downtime.

Application guidance and operational advantages

This cutter is specified for materials up to approximately 800 N/mm² with an uncoated tool and up to 1000 N/mm² when used with the TiCN coating, making it particularly suitable for carbon steel, stainless steel and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally suitable. The combination of robust substrate and coating supports higher cutting speeds and extended tool life, yielding economic benefits through fewer tool changes and stable machining windows. Metav’s product range and logistical reliability further support consistent supply and integration into production workflows.

FAQ

Is this cutter suitable for plunging operations?
The TECWERK end mill DIN 844 Type N 16 mm is centre‑cutting, so it permits limited plunging and is suitable for plunge milling as well as conventional side milling.

What are the main advantages of the TiCN coating?
The TiCN coating on this HSS‑Co8 cutter increases surface hardness and wear resistance, allowing higher cutting speeds and longer tool life in demanding milling tasks.

Can the cutter be used on stainless steel (inox)?
Yes. The tool is rated as very well suited to stainless steel (inox) and delivers consistent results when used within the recommended material strength ranges.

How does the Weldon shank affect machine clamping?
A Weldon shank with drive flat provides secure axial and rotational clamping, reducing slippage and improving rigidity during high‑load operations.

What is the SKU for ordering and reference?
