16mm Short HSS-Co5 End Mill DIN 844 HR Four-Flute TiCN Coating Weldon Shank - TECWERK

Benefit from a compact, high-performance cutter that combines HSS‑Co5 heat resistance, a TiCN wear barrier and a secure Weldon shank for stable, repeatable milling. The result is efficient chip evacuation, long tool life and reliable machining of steels and cast irons — order the tool directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

TECWERK DIN 844 Type HR End Mill Ø16 mm, 42 mm Cutting Length, HSS‑Co5, TiCN, Weldon shank

TECWERK DIN 844 Type HR end mill for short-run and slot milling in tool rooms and production environments, designed for robust performance on steel and cast iron with a four‑flute geometry.

*HSS‑Co5 base material for heat resistance
*TiCN coating extends tool life
*Weldon shank with driving flat for secure clamping
*Very good for steel and cast iron use

Consistent cutting performance for serial production

This short DIN 844 Type HR cutter delivers a reliable balance between toughness and abrasion resistance thanks to its HSS‑Co5 substrate and a TiCN top layer. The four‑flute geometry (Vierschneider) and the fine, regrind‑style helix profile support continuous cutting forces and consistent chip formation, reducing the need for frequent tool changes. In practical terms, this means fewer interruptions to production and a more predictable machining process when working with medium‑to‑high strength materials such as steels and cast iron.

Secure clamping and process stability

A cylindrical shank with a dedicated driving flat (Weldon) and a short design improve rigidity at the toolholder interface, lowering run‑out and vibration during cuts. The integrated 45° protection chamfer and right‑hand cutting orientation limit edge damage on entry, while the centre‑cut geometry allows controlled axial engagement. Together these features support higher feed rates in slotting and finishing operations and reduce the risk of premature tool failure, which in turn helps maintain part quality and machine availability.

Material range and recommended cutting envelopes

The tool is specified for machining with an uncoated cutter up to approximately 800 N/mm² tensile strength and, when used with the coating, up to 1200 N/mm². Labelling in the technical data indicates very good suitability for steel and cast iron, and conditional suitability for non‑ferrous metals, special alloys and stainless steels. For practical application, the coated variant is recommended for tougher or abrasive steels, whereas the uncoated form offers cost efficiency on softer, easily machinable materials.

Straightforward selection and workplace benefits

The combination of four flutes, a fine helix profile and centre‑cut capability simplifies tool selection for many common milling operations: slotting, side milling and shallow pocketing. The Ø16 mm cutter diameter with 42 mm cutting length suits compact setups where access is restricted but rigidity is needed. Choosing this type of short, robust end mill reduces set‑up complexity and supports a stable process window, which helps contain production costs and improves reproducibility across batches.

FAQ

What diameter and cutting length does this end mill have?
The cutter is specified with a diameter of 16 mm and a cutting length of 42 mm in the TECWERK DIN 844 Type HR end mill (SKU 2000866516NW).

Is the tool suitable for plunge milling?
Yes, the centre‑cut geometry permits controlled axial entry, so the end mill can be used for limited plunging as well as slotting and side milling operations.

How does the TiCN coating affect performance?
The TiCN coating increases wear resistance and thermal stability, extending tool life and enabling machining of materials up to about 1200 N/mm² when coated.

Which materials are recommended for this cutter?
This design is very well suited to steels and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals, special alloys and stainless steel are conditionally suitable depending on cutting parameters and coating choice.

What clamping system is recommended for best results?
A secure Weldon‑style clamping with a driving flat is recommended to take advantage of the shank geometry and to minimise run‑out during demanding cuts.
