End mill DIN 844 Type HR – Ø 16 mm, HSS‑Co5, Weldon shank (TECWERK)

The End mill DIN 844 Type HR is a short, four‑flute HSS‑Co5 cutter designed for robust milling in steel and cast iron with reliable centre‑cutting capability

• HSS‑Co5 high‑speed steel with 5% cobalt
• DIN 844 Type HR four‑flute short cutter
• Weldon shank with drive flat
• Centre‑cutting for plunge milling

Faster, reliable results on steel and cast iron

The combination of HSS‑Co5 (high‑speed steel with 5% cobalt) and a four‑flute geometry delivers increased heat resistance and tool life, particularly under heavier engagement. This construction makes the tool especially very suitable for steel and very suitable for cast iron, where the material properties demand a robust edge. The centre‑cutting design allows safe plunge operations and reduces the need for pre‑drilling, improving cycle times on short runs. For reference, the tool is specified for materials up to approximately 800 N/mm² tensile strength in uncoated condition and up to 1200 N/mm² when used with an appropriate coating, enabling informed tool selection for diverse workpieces.

Secure clamping and reduced chatter for precision finishes

A Weldon shank with drive flat provides positive torque transmission between toolholder and cutter, which benefits accuracy and repeatability in production and maintenance work. The short design and the tool’s fine helix with relief grinding help to damp vibration and produce a consistent surface finish, while the 45° protective chamfer supports edge integrity during tool handling and initial engagement. These attributes combine to lower the risk of premature wear and minimise rework, making the cutter a pragmatic choice for workshops prioritising steady process quality.

Practical guidance for integration into production

Designed as a general‑purpose short cutter, this end mill suits toolrooms, maintenance departments and job shops that require dependable, repeatable results. The Ø 16 mm cutting diameter with a 42 mm cutting length strikes a balance between rigidity and reach for typical component geometries. When selecting machining parameters, pair the cutter with appropriate holders and coolant strategies to extend tool life; consider a coated variant if working near the upper tensile limits.
