20mm Full Radius Cutter 40mm Effective Length TiAlN Coating, Solid Carbide, 2-Flute, Short - TECWERK

Take advantage of the combination of solid carbide construction, TiAlN heat protection and a short, rigid geometry to maintain stable, high-precision milling in demanding workshop environments — order the tool via Metav Werkzeuge or ask their consultants for tailored technical advice.

TECWERK Full-radius end mill Ø20 mm, TiAlN-coated, VHM, 2 flutes

The TECWERK Full-radius end mill Ø20 mm is a short, centre-cutting solid carbide mill designed for precise face and contour milling across steels, cast iron and non‑ferrous alloys

• Solid carbide, fine-grain VHM
• TiAlN coating for heat resistance
• Centre-cutting for plunging
• 30° helix, two-flute short version

Consistent metal-removal with increased thermal resistance

The combination of solid carbide construction and a TiAlN coating provides a high-hardness cutting edge and improved oxidation resistance under elevated temperatures, which translates into longer tool life and fewer tool changes. The two‑flute geometry promotes freer chip evacuation in interrupted cuts, while the 30° helix balances cutting forces and surface finish. These design choices result in predictable material removal rates and reduced downtime for production runs.

Rigidity and accuracy for shoulder work and shallow pockets

The short design with a 20 mm shank and effective length 40 mm gives high torsional stiffness and reduced deflection compared with longer tools, improving dimensional accuracy on shoulders and tight tolerances. The cylindrical shank conforms to DIN 6535 HB with a h6 tolerance for secure clamping and concentricity in standard toolholders. The centre‑cutting geometry permits controlled plunging, enabling efficient internal entrances without the need for pre‑drilling.

One tool for a wide range of materials saves preparation time

This tool demonstrates very good suitability for a broad spectrum of workpieces: steel, cast iron, stainless (CrNi) steels, bronze, brass, copper, aluminium with silicon and abrasive engineering plastics. The specification is aimed at reducing tool variety in the workshop by offering a single cutter capable of handling different materials with reliable performance, provided the cutting data are adapted to each material class and machine capability.

Practical workshop benefits and handling tips

The short, two‑flute layout and centre‑cutting tip of the TECWERK full‑radius cutter make it particularly suited to operations where rigidity, plunge ability and chip control are priorities. The tool’s fine‑grain VHM substrate maintains edge integrity under moderate climb and conventional milling directions (right‑hand cutting), and the 30° helix supports good surface quality. For best results, use appropriate coolant and adjust feeds and speeds to the workpiece material and machine rigidity.

FAQ

Which materials is this cutter suitable for?
The TECWERK full‑radius end mill is specified for steel, cast iron, stainless (CrNi) steels, bronze, brass, copper, aluminium with silicon content and abrasive plastics, delivering versatile performance across these material groups.

Can this tool be used for plunge cutting?
Yes, the centre‑cutting design enables controlled plunging into the material, so the cutter can perform short axial entries as well as conventional peripheral milling.

What are the shank standard and tolerance?
The tool features a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB with a h6 tolerance and a shank diameter of 20 mm, suitable for standard toolholders that accept DIN 6535 HB shanks.

What advantages does the TiAlN coating provide?
The TiAlN coating increases surface hardness and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, which helps maintain cutting-edge integrity and extends tool lifetime during machining of harder alloys.

Is this cutter appropriate for machining aluminium?
The specification lists suitability for aluminium with silicon content; adequate chip evacuation and appropriate cutting data are important to avoid built‑up edge and to achieve a good surface finish.
