16.5mm Slot Cutter HSS-Co 8 Teeth 8mm Cutting Length Right-Handed, DIN 850D - ALPEN-MAYKESTAG GmbH

Take advantage of the combination of HSS‑Co toughness, a Ø16.5 mm cutting diameter and a 10 mm shank for reliable slotting in mixed-steel workshops; order the slot milling cutter directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

MAYKESTAG Slot Milling Cutter — Ø16.5 mm, HSS‑Co, 8 flutes

The MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter is a right‑hand slot cutter for precision machining of construction and tempered steels, as well as short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals, supplied on a cylindrical shank with drive flat

• HSS‑Co grade for hard‑wearing performance
• Ø16.5 mm diameter for precise slotting
• 8 cutting edges for smooth chip formation
• 10 mm shank with drive flat for secure clamping

High‑temperature stability and durable cutting life

Manufactured from HSS‑Co, the tool is designed to maintain hardness and cutting geometry at elevated temperatures, which extends tool life during continuous milling. The combination of a DIN 850 D geometry and 8 flutes supports even load distribution across the cutting edges; this reduces wear and improves dimensional stability in repetitive production runs. The cutting length 8 mm and Ø16.5 mm diameter are set to deliver consistent slot widths while keeping vibrations low, enabling predictable cycle times in CNC and manual milling operations.

Concentric clamping and process reliability

A 10 mm shank with a dedicated drive flat ensures secure clamping and repeatable concentricity when used in standard collets or chucks. The cylindrical shank design minimises runout, which directly improves surface finish and reduces the need for secondary rework. Where tight tolerances are required, the stable interface between tool and spindle results in reduced scrap rates and more predictable setup times, benefitting batch production and single‑part tasks alike.

Proven application range and chip control

Specified for machining construction steels, tempered steels and short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals, the cutter’s geometry favours controlled chip breakage and evacuation. Right‑hand cutting orientation provides conventional feed behaviour for standard milling fixtures, and the flute geometry is optimised for short, brittle chips rather than long, stringy swarf. This reduces the risk of chip re‑cutting and supports safer, cleaner operation on lathes and milling centres when slotting or plunge milling small features.

Workshop efficiency, standard conformity and handling

Compliance with DIN 850 D guarantees a standardised profile and interchangeability, which simplifies tool management across shops using compatible tooling systems. The solid‑carbide‑alternative design is not used here; instead this robust HSS‑Co cutter offers an economical balance between cutting performance and cost‑effective regrinding cycles. Packaging is supplied per item for direct replacement, and the reliable geometry supports reproducible results, improving throughput and trust in daily production planning. Metav Werkzeuge’s quality‑filter approach ensures consistent delivery and product traceability.

FAQ

What materials is this slot milling cutter suitable for?
The slot milling cutter from MAYKESTAG is intended for construction steels, tempered steels and short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals, as stated in the technical specifications.

How should the tool be clamped for best results?
Use a standard collet or chuck sized for the 10 mm shank; the cylindrical shank with drive flat ensures secure clamping and reduced runout when clamped correctly.

Can this cutter be used in high‑speed milling applications?
The HSS‑Co grade provides improved heat resistance compared with standard high‑speed steel, making the cutter suitable for moderately elevated cutting speeds within recommended machining parameters.

What standard does the tool comply with?
The geometry adheres to DIN 850 D (Type N), which ensures consistent profile and interchangeability across compliant tooling systems.

How many cutting edges does the tool have and what benefit does this offer?
The cutter features 8 flutes, which provide smoother chip load distribution and improved surface finish in slotting operations.
