12mm Long Solid Carbide End Mill TiAlN Coating 35mm Cutting Length 4-Flute DIN 6527L - TECWERK

Combining a TiAlN-coated solid carbide body, a centre-cut 4‑flute geometry and a long 35 mm effective cutting length, this end mill delivers high-feed roughing and precise finishing across steels, castings and non-ferrous alloys; order via Metav Werkzeuge or contact our specialists for tailored cutting data.

TECWERK Solid Carbide End Mill DIN 6527L Ø12 mm — TiAlN, 4‑flute, long

The TECWERK Solid Carbide End Mill DIN 6527L is designed for high-performance roughing and finishing in steels, cast iron and non-ferrous materials, offering vibration‑reduced cutting with a long effective length.

• Solid carbide VHM construction
• TiAlN coating for heat resistance
• Centre-cut for plunge-capable milling
• Unequal pitch for low vibration

Consistent high performance for heavy-duty milling

The long, TiAlN-coated solid carbide body combined with a 4‑flute arrangement provides a reliable balance between material removal rate and surface finish. The VHM fine‑grain carbide substrate resists edge wear and thermal softening during sustained cutting, while the TiAlN top layer increases oxidation resistance and reduces built-up edge formation. As a result, the tool maintains dimensional stability in extended cycles, enabling efficient HPC (high‑performance cutting) strategies and fewer tool changes during production runs.

Geometry engineered to reduce chatter and improve stability

An unequal pitch geometry together with a neck relief and a protective 45° chamfer minimise harmonic excitation and protect the cutting edges during entry and exit. The cylindrical shank produced to DIN 6535 HB with h6 tolerance ensures secure clamping and repeatable concentricity in toolholders, which reduces runout and increases tool life. The centre‑cut design allows axial plunging without pre‑drilling, while the neck relief and vibration‑reduction features support consistent surface quality in longer reach operations.

Versatile material compatibility for mixed production

The tool is optimised for a broad spectrum of materials: steels and alloyed steels, grey and nodular cast irons, temper castings, Cr‑Ni stainless steels, non‑ferrous metals and aluminium alloys with silicon content, as well as abrasive or special alloys. The combination of substrate, coating and geometry enables both roughing and finishing in the same tool family, reducing tool inventory and simplifying process planning in workshops handling diverse components.

Practical integration into the workshop and process planning

With a 35 mm effective cutting length and 83 mm overall length, the tool offers extended reach for fixtures and cavities while maintaining rigidity when clamped correctly. The Ø12 mm shank and 12 mm diameter match standard holders; correct feed and spindle speed selection for the material and holder type will deliver optimal chip evacuation and surface quality. For plunge operations and slotting, the centre‑cut geometry reduces the need for additional tooling; for critical jobs, provide component drawings and cutting conditions for tailored recommendations.

FAQ

Can this end mill be used for plunge cutting?
Yes. The TECWERK solid carbide end mill features a centre‑cut geometry that allows axial plunging and reduces the need for pre‑drilling when performing slotting or pocket entry operations.

Which materials is this tool best suited for?
The tool is suited for steels, steel castings, grey and temper cast irons, Cr‑Ni stainless steels, non‑ferrous metals including aluminium with silicon content and certain abrasive or special alloys, enabling both roughing and finishing passes.

What shank tolerance and mounting are specified for secure clamping?
The shank is manufactured to DIN 6535 HB with an h6 tolerance, providing repeatable concentricity and secure clamping in standard toolholders for improved runout and tool life.

How does the TiAlN coating benefit production?
The TiAlN coating increases oxidation resistance and reduces heat impact on the cutting edge, improving wear resistance during high‑speed or high‑temperature cutting and extending tool life in demanding applications.

What cutting strategy suits this 4‑flute long end mill best?
The geometry and substrate support HPC strategies: use full‑depth roughing with conservative radial engagement followed by a finishing pass, or employ high feed rates with smaller axial depths where machine rigidity and spindle power allow
