MAYKESTAG slot cutter DIN 850 D, Ø7.5 mm — HSS‑Co, 6 flutes

The MAYKESTAG slot cutter DIN 850 D, Ø7.5 mm (HSS‑Co) is a precision tool for producing narrow slots and shoulders in construction, quenched and case‑hardened steels and short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals.

• High‑cobalt HSS‑Co for enhanced durability
• DIN 850 D Type N geometry
• Six‑flute design for smooth surface finish
• Cylindrical shank with drive flat

Consistent slotting performance for demanding materials

Manufactured from HSS‑Co (cobalt high‑speed steel) and following DIN 850 D Type N geometry, this slot cutter combines wear resistance with a precise cutting edge. The six‑flute configuration reduces radial cutting force per tooth, which contributes to a steadier cutting action and a finer surface quality. For workshops processing service and case‑hardened steels, this composition provides a robust balance between hardness and toughness, increasing the number of usable passes before regrinding or replacement is required. The result is predictable tool life and consistent part quality.

Stable clamping and minimal run‑out for accurate machining

A cylindrical shank with drive flat and a shank diameter of Ø6 mm ensure secure clamping in standard toolholders and reduced slippage under load. With an overall length of 50 mm and a focused cutting length of 6 mm, the tool minimises overhang while permitting access to narrow slots. The cutter is right‑hand cutting, optimised for conventional spindle rotations. These mechanical details translate into improved concentricity, reduced vibration and tighter tolerance control when paired with properly set up machines and steady fixturing.

Effective chip control and surface finish in short‑chipping materials

The relatively short cutting length and multiple cutting edges favour efficient chip breakage with short‑chipping materials such as certain non‑ferrous alloys. Short‑chipping behaviour means chips form in small segments rather than long ribbons, lowering the risk of re‑cutting and improving surface integrity. For ferrous materials that tend to produce longer chips, the cutter's geometry still promotes manageable chip flow when combined with appropriate coolant or air blast. The observed benefit is a consistently clean slot edge and reduced secondary finishing work.

Practical integration into workshop production

This tool suits batch production and repair tasks where repeatability is required. Its Ø7.5 mm diameter and six flutes allow higher feed per tooth at moderate speeds, reducing cycle time without sacrificing finish. The material choice of HSS‑Co provides resistance to edge breakdown under intermittent cuts and in mixed material runs. For best results, match holder rigidity to minimise overhang, use steady coolant application where possible and employ appropriate feeds to maintain chip size; this approach yields fewer tool changes and a lowered risk of scrap.

FAQ

What materials is this slot cutter suitable for?
The MAYKESTAG slot cutter is designed for construction, case‑hardened and quenched steels and is also suitable for short‑chipping non‑ferrous materials thanks to its HSS‑Co composition and flute geometry.

How does the six‑flute design affect performance?
A six‑flute configuration increases the number of cutting edges engaging the workpiece, improving surface finish and reducing individual tooth load, which benefits tool life and repeatability during production.

Is the shank compatible with standard collets?
Yes, the Ø6 mm cylindrical shank with drive flat fits standard collets and chucks; secure clamping improves concentricity and reduces run‑out when used with appropriately rigid holders.

Does the cutter have a coating?
No coating is specified for this tool; the base material is HSS‑Co, chosen to provide a balance of hardness and toughness without a surface coating.

What is included in the packaging unit?
The product is supplied as a single unit (packaging unit: 1), intended for immediate use or stocking in production supplies.
