MAYKESTAG Slot cutter DIN 850 D Type N — Ø10.5 mm, HSS‑Co, 8 flutes

A MAYKESTAG slot cutter DIN 850 D Type N designed for precise slotting and face milling in structural, case‑hardened and quenched‑and‑tempered steels as well as short‑chipping non‑ferrous materials

• HSS‑Co for enhanced wear resistance
• 8 flutes for improved chip control
• Cylindrical shank with drive flat for secure clamping

Precision and consistent cutting performance for industrial use

The combination of HSS‑Co (cobalt high‑speed steel) and the DIN 850 D Type N geometry delivers a balance of hardness and red‑hardness that extends tool life under higher thermal loads. With a 10.5 mm cutting diameter and 8 flutes, the cutter reduces vibration and improves surface finish when performing slotting operations. The multi‑flute arrangement favours a smoother cutting action and steadier feed rates, which translates into fewer secondary operations and a more predictable production flow. This engineering focus on repeatable performance supports efficient machining in small‑batch and serial production environments.

Robust material compatibility with clear application benefits

Manufactured from HSS‑Co, the tool is suitable for milling structural steel, case‑hardened and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, plus short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals such as aluminium alloys and brass. “Short‑chipping” refers to materials that break into short, controllable chips rather than long, stringy swarf; this behaviour improves chip evacuation and reduces the risk of tool clogging. The Type N geometry is optimised for these conditions, enabling reliable metal removal and consistent dimensional results even on tougher workpiece materials.

Secure mounting and operational advantages for shop floors

A 6 mm cylindrical shank with a drive flat ensures positive gripping in standard collets and toolholders, reducing slippage during intermittent cuts and plunge entries. The tool’s 50 mm overall length with an 8 mm cutting length offers a compact footprint for tight setups while providing sufficient reach for shallow slotting and finishing passes. The right‑hand cutting direction is compatible with conventional spindle rotation and typical machine set‑ups, allowing straightforward integration into existing process routines without special fixturing.

Practical guidance for machining and tool care

For best results, select feeds and speeds according to workpiece material and machine rigidity, favouring stable clamping and appropriate coolant or lubrication where suitable. Inspect the cutting edges regularly for wear and maintain secure clamping of the cylindrical shank to avoid chatter; the 8‑flute design benefits from steady chip removal and a uniform surface appearance, reducing downstream processing. The robust HSS‑Co composition also allows intermittent heavy cuts when required, while retaining a consistent edge for finishing operations.

FAQ

What materials can this slot cutter machine reliably?
The MAYKESTAG slot cutter (DIN 850 D Type N, SKU 4117802223NW) is specified for structural steels, case‑hardened and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, and short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals such as aluminium alloys and brass.

Is the shank compatible with standard collets?
Yes, the tool features a 6 mm cylindrical shank with a drive flat for secure clamping in conventional 6 mm collets and toolholders.

How does the HSS‑Co composition affect tool life?
HSS‑Co provides increased hot hardness and wear resistance compared with standard high‑speed steels, so the cutter maintains cutting performance longer under elevated temperatures and tougher cutting conditions.
