MAYKESTAG Slot Milling Cutter DIN 850D Type N — 10.5 mm, HSS‑Co

The MAYKESTAG Slot Milling Cutter DIN 850D Type N is a right‑hand slotting cutter designed for machining construction, case‑hardened and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, plus short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals in workshop and production environments

*HSS‑Co construction for higher heat resistance *8 cutting edges for smooth slotting *Right‑hand cutting for conventional milling *10.5 mm diameter, 8 mm cutting length

High‑accuracy slotting for demanding steels and alloys

The alloyed HSS‑Co substrate specified for this cutter is selected to balance wear resistance and toughness when machining medium‑hard and heat‑resistant workpiece materials. Meeting the DIN 850D design intent, the tool’s 8 flutes create a stable cutting geometry that reduces vibration and improves dimensional repeatability during slotting operations. For production lines and jobbing shops alike, this results in fewer rework cycles and more consistent part tolerances.

Reliable chip control and process stability

A short 8 mm cutting length together with the right‑hand helix favours machining of short‑chipping materials and reduces the risk of built‑up edge. The multi‑flute layout helps distribute cutting forces, enabling finer feed per tooth at equivalent material removal rates; this supports higher surface quality and lengthens the service life of the tool. In practice, these characteristics translate to lower downtime and predictable tool change intervals in both single‑piece and small‑batch series work.

Practical integration into existing toolholding systems

The cutter is supplied with a 6 mm cylindrical shank with a drive flat, permitting secure clamping in standard collets and holders while maintaining concentricity for precision slotting. The overall length of 50 mm and a 10.5 mm nominal diameter make the tool compatible with compact set‑ups and machines where reach and rigidity are critical. This straightforward fitment simplifies inventory management and reduces the need for specialised toolholders.

FAQ

What materials is this slot milling cutter suitable for?
The MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter (DIN 850D Type N, SKU 4117802225NW) is intended for construction steels, case‑hardened and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, and for short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals where an HSS‑Co substrate is advantageous.

How does the 8‑flute design affect machining?
An 8‑flute geometry on this cutter increases contact stability and distributes cutting forces, enabling finer feeds per tooth and improved surface finish when using the MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter in appropriate setups.

Which toolholders fit the cutter’s shank?
The 6 mm cylindrical shank with drive flat is compatible with standard collet chucks and small‑diameter holders commonly used in milling machines and machining centres for precise clamping of the MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter.

Is this cutter suitable for high‑speed milling?
The cutter’s HSS‑Co composition offers a balance of toughness and heat resistance; however, spindle speed and feed must be set according to the machined material and machine rigidity when using the MAYKESTAG DIN 850D tool.

How many cutting edges are on this tool and what is the practical benefit?
The tool has 8 cutting edges, which promote smoother slotting operations, greater surface integrity and improved tool life compared with lower‑flute variants when matched to the right workpiece and cutting parameters.
