Schaftfräser DIN 844 Typ N, 20 mm – HSS‑Co8 end mill with TiCN coating (TECWERK)

A Schaftfräser DIN 844 Typ N, 20 mm designed as a short, centre-cutting end mill for precise milling of steel, stainless steel and cast materials in industrial workshops

• HSS‑Co8 for high wear resistance
• TiCN coating for extended tool life
• 20 mm diameter with 4‑flute geometry
• Weldon shank for secure clamping

Precision material and coating for consistent edge life

The combination of HSS‑Co8 substrate and TiCN surface treatment gives a robust cutting edge that maintains form under thermal and mechanical load. The cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel increases red‑hardness and toughness, while the titanium carbonitride layer reduces abrasion and improves heat resistance. For machine shops requiring repeatable results, this material pairing delivers longer intervals between regrinds and consistent dimensional quality.

Stable cutting geometry and secure clamping for vibration reduction

The 4‑flute geometry provides a balance between chip clearance and axial stability, which supports steady side‑milling and face‑milling operations. A Weldon shank ensures positive torque transmission in standard toolholders, reducing the risk of slippage during interrupted cuts. The short overall form contributes to lower overhang, improving rigidity and reducing chatter for cleaner surface finishes and more predictable tool life.

Clear material recommendations for correct application

Designed under DIN 844 as a Type N short cutter, the tool is specified for machining materials up to higher strengths when coated. The data indicates very good suitability for steel, stainless steel and cast iron, with conditional application for non‑ferrous metals and certain special alloys. The tool is centre‑cutting, permitting limited plunging operations; select feeds and speeds accordingly to match workpiece strength and to take full advantage of the coating.

Practical dimensions and handling for workshop use

Key dimensions such as the 20 mm shank and cutting diameter, an overall length of 104 mm and an effective length of 52 mm make the geometry straightforward to set up in common milling centres. The cutting length of 4 mm is intended for short‑reach machining where rigidity is paramount. These specifications simplify tool selection and fixture planning, while the standardised shank diameter eases replacement in existing toolholders.

FAQ

What materials is this end mill best suited for?
The TECWERK end mill is specified as very good for steel, stainless steel and cast iron, with conditional use on non‑ferrous metals and special alloys.

Does the TiCN coating improve performance at higher cutting speeds?
Yes, the TiCN layer increases wear resistance and heat tolerance, allowing more consistent performance at elevated cutting parameters compared with uncoated HSS‑Co.

Can this cutter be used for plunge milling?
The tool is centre‑cutting, permitting limited plunging operations; however, the 4 mm cutting length and short design are optimised for rigid, short‑reach milling tasks.

How does the Weldon shank affect toolholding?
The Weldon shank provides secure mechanical clamping in set‑screw toolholders, improving torque transmission and reducing slippage during interrupted cuts.

What does DIN 844 Type N indicate for workshop selection?
DIN 844 Type N denotes a short, straight flute end mill geometry intended for general milling jobs with emphasis on stability and short overhang.
