TECWERK End Mill HSS‑Co5 TiCN Ø16 mm — DIN 844 Type NR, effective length 42 mm

The TECWERK End Mill HSS‑Co5 TiCN Ø16 mm is a short multi‑flute cutter designed for high‑performance milling of steel and cast components in demanding shop environments.

• HSS‑Co5 construction for enhanced toughness and wear resistance
• TiCN coating for improved life and surface finish
• Weldon shank with drive flat for secure clamping
• Centre‑cut, short multi‑flute design for plunge milling

Reliable metal removal with high toughness and repeatability

The TECWERK End Mill HSS‑Co5 TiCN Ø16 mm combines a high‑cobalt HSS‑Co5 substrate with a TiCN surface layer to deliver a balance of toughness and wear resistance. The result is a cutter that withstands intermittent loads and moderate heat generation while maintaining cutting edge integrity. In practice, this means fewer tool changes and steadier cycle times when producing small to medium runs on steels and castings.

Consistent surface quality and extended tool life

A TiCN coating reduces friction and improves resistance to abrasive wear, which helps maintain dimensional accuracy over longer tool life. The centre‑cut geometry enables limited plunge capability, removing the need for separate drilling operations in many setups. The short multi‑flute profile and the 45° chamfer combine to give predictable chip formation and a controlled cutting force, supporting smoother finishes on machined faces.

Application guidance for mixed material workshops

This cutter is optimised for machining steels and cast iron, delivering very good results on these materials; non‑ferrous alloys and special alloys are conditionally suitable. Practically, this means it is a reliable choice for toolrooms and production cells that process a mix of ferrous components, particularly where components do not exceed the material strength limits indicated by the tool specification. For applications requiring high‑speed machining, the HSS‑Co5 base tolerates elevated cutting speeds better than plain HSS.

Secure mounting and machine integration for stable operation

The Weldon shank with drive flat ensures positive drive and reduces the risk of slippage in collets or chucks under heavy cutting loads. The cylindrical shank is compatible with standard toolholders; the short overall length and the relief‑ground profile reduce deflection and vibration in less rigid setups. When combined with correct spindle speeds and feeds, users can expect repeatable hole positions and uniformly machined faces across batches.

FAQ

What materials is this cutter best suited for?
The answer: The TECWERK end mill is very well suited to steel and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally suitable depending on machining parameters.

Can this tool perform plunging operations?
Yes. The centre‑cut geometry allows limited plunge milling; the cutter is designed for short‑depth centre entries where immediate axial cutting is required.

What advantages does the TiCN coating provide?
TiCN reduces friction and improves wear resistance, which typically leads to longer service life and more consistent surface finish when using the TECWERK cutter.

How should the cutter be clamped for best results?
Use a secure clamping system compatible with a Weldon shank and ensure the drive flat is engaged; rigid toolholding reduces deflection and improves repeatability of the cut.

Is this cutter compatible with high‑speed machining?
The HSS‑Co5 substrate tolerates higher cutting speeds than standard HSS; however, machining parameters should be adjusted according to material and machine capabilities for optimal tool life.
