End mill DIN 844 Type HR, Ø16 mm — HSS‑Co5, TiCN, Weldon shank

End mill DIN 844 Type HR designed for heavy-duty machining and reliable chip control in demanding shop environments

• High wear resistance TiCN coating
• 4 flutes for stable cutting performance
• Weldon shank with drive flat for secure clamping
• Centre-cutting for axial entry
• Very good for steel and cast iron

Reliable cutting performance with increased wear resistance

The solid carbide alternative aside, this HSS‑Co5 cutter provides a cost-effective balance of toughness and heat resistance for heavy roughing and finishing tasks. The TiCN coating reduces friction and improves surface durability, extending edge life under repeated load. With 4 flutes and a DIN 844 Type HR geometry, the cutter offers a combination of chip evacuation and cutting stability that supports consistent material removal rates. These features translate into fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times on production runs.

Secure holding and axial capability for heavy cuts

A Weldon shank with drive flat and a cylindrical shank profile ensure positive torque transfer and minimised runout during aggressive milling. The cutter’s 16 mm diameter and 73 mm effective length deliver reach without sacrificing rigidity, while the centre-cutting design permits safe axial plunging. The result is improved process reliability when working with interrupted cuts or deep pockets, and reduced chatter when paired with a suitable toolholder and stable machine setup.

Clear guidance on material suitability and application

The geometry and coatings make the cutter particularly well suited to ferrous materials: steel and cast iron are rated very good, while non-ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally feasible with adjusted cutting parameters. The combination of right‑hand cut, a 45° protective chamfer and a honed, fine profile supports controlled chip formation and surface finish when machining components with tensile strengths of up to approximately 1200 N/mm². For optimal results, select feeds and speeds consistent with HSS‑Co tooling and verify with a test pass on representative stock.

FAQ

What materials is this cutter best suited to machine?
The TECWERK end mill is rated very good for steel and cast iron; non‑ferrous metals and special alloys are conditionally suitable with adapted cutting data.

Is the cutter suitable for axial plunging?
Yes, the centre‑cutting geometry of the end mill permits axial entry for plunge operations and ramping.

Which shank type is fitted and what is the benefit?
A Weldon shank with drive flat is provided, ensuring secure clamping and reduced slippage under high cutting forces.

What does the TiCN coating deliver in practice?
TiCN offers improved wear resistance and lower friction, which helps prolong tool life and maintain surface quality during extended runs.

Can this cutter handle interrupted cuts and pocketing?
The combination of HSS‑Co5 substrate, honed profile and 4‑flute geometry gives good resistance to impact and consistent chip control for interrupted cuts and pocket machining.
