MAYKESTAG T‑slot cutter DIN 851 AB Type N — 16 mm, HSS‑Co, cross‑serrated

The MAYKESTAG T‑slot cutter designed for precision slot milling in a workshop and production environment, offering wear resistance and reliable chip control for short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals and a range of steels

• Cross‑serrated cutting edge
• HSS‑Co for high wear resistance
• 16 mm nominal diameter
• Cylindrical shank with drive flat

Durable material and standardised design for repeatable accuracy

Made from HSS‑Co, this cutter combines the toughness of high‑speed steel with cobalt enrichment for improved heat resistance and edge retention during interrupted or heavy engagement. Conformity with DIN 851 AB (Type N) supplies a known geometry and predictable behaviour when machining construction, alloyed and quenched‑and‑tempered steels. The result is a reduced need for regrinding and fewer tool changes, which supports continuous operation and predictable process planning.

Controlled chip formation and clean T‑slot profiles

The cross‑serrated tooth form and the relatively short 6 mm cutting length promote fine, short chips and a consistent surface finish in slots. Designed for T‑slots to DIN 650 (8 mm groove), the tool produces a reliable slot profile with minimal burr formation, reducing downstream finishing. Where cycle time and first‑pass quality matter, this geometry helps to lower rework rates and improves throughput without sacrificing dimensional accuracy.

Stable mounting and low runout for precise machining

A cylindrical shank with an integrated drive flat and a 10 mm shank diameter ensures secure seating in collets and chucks, keeping rotational runout to a minimum. The tool’s right‑hand cutting direction and compact 62 mm overall length allow straightforward integration into standard toolholders and machining setups. The six‑flute configuration supports even cutting forces, which improves surface consistency and extends tool life through balanced load distribution.

Broad application range with shop‑floor reliability

With Z = 6 flutes and a nominal 16 mm diameter, the cutter is suitable for short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals as well as a wide range of steels encountered in general mechanical engineering and maintenance workshops. The combination of robust material and serrated cutting provides a compromise between aggressive material removal and controlled finishes, delivering dependable performance on repeated production runs and bespoke tasks alike.

FAQ

Which materials can be machined with this cutter? The MAYKESTAG T‑slot cutter is made from HSS‑Co and is specified for machining construction steels, alloyed steels and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, as well as short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals.

What shank size and toolholder are required? A 10 mm shank diameter with a cylindrical shank and drive flat is specified; use a collet or chuck compatible with a 10 mm shank to ensure secure clamping.

What slot width does the cutter produce? The cutter is intended for T‑slots conforming to DIN 650 and is matched to produce an 8 mm groove in that standard configuration.

Is the tool suitable for high‑speed machining? Constructed from HSS‑Co, the cutter offers enhanced heat resistance and edge life, making it suitable for moderate to elevated cutting speeds within the recommended parameters for steel and short‑chipping non‑ferrous materials.

How many flutes does the cutter have and what is the effect? The tool features 6 flutes (Z = 6), which distribute cutting forces evenly for smoother operation and improved surface finish on the machined slot.
