TECWERK End Mill 6 mm — HSS‑Co5, TiCN coated, DIN 844, Weldon shank

TECWERK End Mill 6 mm is a short DIN 844 type NR multi‑flute cutter designed for precision milling of steels and cast iron in workshop and production environments

• HSS‑Co5 for high hardness and long life
• TiCN coating for superior wear resistance
• DIN 844 short multi‑flute end mill

Rigidity and material performance for consistent production

The tool is manufactured from HSS‑Co5, a cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel that raises red hardness and wear resistance compared with ordinary HSS. This material choice translates into longer service life under intermittent loads and improved edge stability when machining ferrous substrates. For operations where material strength is a decisive factor, the cutter has been specified for very good performance on steel and cast iron, enabling reliable finishing and light slotting without frequent tool changes.

Coating and cutting behaviour that reduce heat and wear

A thin TiCN layer reduces friction and increases surface hardness at the cutting edges, which supports higher cutting velocities with coated tools versus uncoated ones. The tool’s central cutting capability and three‑edge geometry permit clean entry into the workpiece and lower delamination risk on thin sections. As a result, machining cycles exhibit improved surface integrity and extended tool intervals, which contributes to predictable production throughput.

Compact geometry for stability and accurate results

Compliant with DIN 844 Type NR, the short multi‑flute design provides enhanced stiffness and vibration resistance in peripheral milling and slotting tasks. The 6 mm shank combined with a Weldon shank (drive flat) secures positive clamping in standard tool holders, reducing the chance of slippage under moderate feeds. The tool’s effective cutting length of 19 mm and a 45° chamfer on the entry edge favour controlled chip formation, making the cutter suitable where dimensional accuracy and surface finish matter.

Application scope and workshop integration

The cutter is engineered for machining tasks where a compact, rigid tool brings benefits in cycle time and repeatability. Very good suitability for steel and cast iron is complemented by conditional use on aluminium alloys, non‑ferrous metals and selected special alloys when process parameters are adapted. The short design keeps overhang minimal, improving concentricity and enabling stable operation in small‑to‑medium series production.

FAQ

What materials is the TECWERK end mill suitable for?
The TECWERK end mill (SKU 2000866467NW) is very well suited to steel and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals and certain special alloys may be machined conditionally with adapted parameters.

What advantage does the TiCN coating provide?
The TiCN coating on the TECWERK end mill improves surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge, which helps to extend tool life and supports higher cutting speeds compared with uncoated HSS tools.

Why is the DIN 844 short design beneficial?
The DIN 844 short multi‑flute geometry increases rigidity and reduces overhang, resulting in lower vibration and more consistent dimensional accuracy during peripheral milling and slotting operations.

How does the Weldon shank affect clamping security?
The Weldon shank and drive flat on this TECWERK cutter ensure positive mechanical engagement in standard holders, minimising slippage under load and improving concentricity for precise machining.

How many cutting edges does this tool have and what does that mean for finishing?
With three flutes, the cutter provides a balance between chip evacuation and multiple cutting edges for smoother finishes; the central cutting feature also aids clean entry into the workpiece.
