TECWERK Full-radius end mill D16 mm – short, TiAlN-coated solid carbide

The TECWERK Full-radius end mill D16 mm is a short, centre-cutting solid carbide cutter designed for precision slotting and contour milling in steels, cast irons and non-ferrous alloys.

• Solid-carbide fine-grain TiAlN-coated
• 16 mm diameter, 32 mm effective cutting length
• 2-flute, right-hand centre-cut design
• Short design with 30° helix for clean chips

Faster, more consistent machining in confined setups

Engineered for short-reach operations, this solid carbide tool provides high stiffness and low chatter, which improves surface finish and maintains dimensional accuracy. The TiAlN coating increases hot hardness and wear resistance, especially under elevated cutting temperatures, so single-pass operations remain stable. With a compact overall length and a 16 mm body, the cutter is practical for fixtures and small mills where rigidity is critical; the result is reduced rework and predictable cycle times.

Efficient chip evacuation and reliable cutting action

The 2-flute geometry and 30° helix promote controlled chip flow while retaining sufficient flute volume for aluminium and abrasive plastics. The centre-cutting design permits plunge cuts and short slotting without requiring special pre-drilling, making it suitable for mixed tasks on the shop floor. Because the tool is right-hand cutting, set-up and toolpaths remain conventional for standard CAM strategies, simplifying programming and reducing process variability.

Broad material versatility with industrial-grade tolerances

Manufactured from fine-grain solid carbide and finished to shop standards, the cutter is suitable for a wide range of materials from mild steel and alloyed steels to non-ferrous metals and cast irons. The cylindrical shank complies with common machine interfaces and the DIN 6535 HB specification, with a tightly controlled shank tolerance of h6, ensuring concentric clamping and minimised run-out. The combination of fine-grain carbide and TiAlN coating extends tool life in continuous and interrupted cuts, offering predictable tool-change intervals and lower tooling costs per part.
