TECWERK solid carbide end mill D16 mm – TiAlN, 6 flutes, extra-long

The TECWERK solid carbide end mill D16 mm is a long-reach, multi-flute cutter engineered for vibration-reduced roughing and finishing in steels, cast irons and non-ferrous alloys.

• Solid carbide body with TiAlN coating
• 6 flutes for vibration-reduced cutting
• 55 mm effective cutting length, extra-long reach
• 35–38° helix for efficient chip evacuation

High-performance cutting for mixed machining tasks

The combination of a solid carbide substrate and TiAlN coating delivers high thermal resistance and wear protection, translating into longer tool life under elevated cutting temperatures. The cutter’s 6-flute configuration improves axial stability and supports higher material removal rates, while the pronounced 35–38° helix promotes controlled chip flow. As a result, the tool is particularly suited for applications where consistent surface quality and process reliability are required, from aggressive roughing to fine semi-finishing passes.

Geometry and coating designed to reduce vibration and extend tool life

A purposely developed geometry with unequal pitch and a neck relief contributes to a smooth cutting action and reduced harmonic excitation during deep or overhand machining. The TiAlN layer increases hardness at high temperatures and enhances oxidation resistance, which reduces flank wear in demanding operations. The extra-long reach together with the 55 mm cutting length allows access to recessed features without compromising stiffness, enabling efficient machining of prismatic parts and deep cavities.

Versatility across materials and stable production results

The cutter’s profile and coating make it very well suited for machining a wide spectrum of materials: steel, cast iron, temper cast, Cr‑Ni steels, stainless steels, non-ferrous metals and special alloys, as well as aluminium alloys with silicon content and abrasive materials. The cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB and h6 shank tolerance ensure repeatable clamping accuracy, supporting consistent concentricity and reduced runout in series production. This combination provides a pragmatic balance between cutting performance and process security for jobbing shops and production lines.

FAQ

What materials is this end mill suitable for?
The TECWERK solid carbide end mill with TiAlN coating is very well suited for steel, cast iron, stainless and non‑ferrous metals, special alloys and aluminium alloys with silicon content, as well as abrasive materials.

Can this cutter be used for both roughing and finishing?
Yes; the extra-long, six‑flute geometry and the TiAlN coating allow the cutter to perform efficient roughing and produce consistent semi‑finished surfaces.

What are the key dimensions to consider for my setup?
Diameter 16 mm, effective cutting length 55 mm and overall length 108 mm are the primary dimensions to ensure reach and clamp compatibility in the machine setup.

How does the TiAlN coating benefit machining?
The TiAlN coating increases high-temperature hardness and oxidation resistance, reducing wear during elevated-temperature cutting and extending tool life in demanding operations.

Is the shank compatible with standard toolholders?
The shank is cylindrical to DIN 6535 HB with an h6 tolerance, providing repeatable clamping accuracy for standard holders.
