MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter »DIN 850 D, HSS‑Co, 45.5 mm«

The MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter is a Type N tool engineered for slotting construction, quenched‑and‑tempered steels and short‑chip non‑ferrous metals with a 45.5 mm diameter and 14 cutting edges

• HSS‑Co for enhanced wear resistance
• DIN 850 D Type N geometry
• For construction and quenched steels
• Cylindrical shank with drive flat

Consistent slot quality for production workflows

The combination of DIN 850 D geometry and a high‑quality HSS‑Co cutting material ensures consistent slot dimensions and surface finish, which reduces rework and fitting time. The tool’s 14 cutting edges and a cutting length 14 mm distribute cutting forces evenly, lowering vibration and producing cleaner chips; this is particularly beneficial when machining short‑chip non‑ferrous alloys and the tougher construction or tempered steels often found in industrial assemblies. The result is reliable repeatability across batch runs and fewer downstream adjustments.

Longer tool life through optimised material and design

Constructed from cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel (HSS‑Co), the cutter resists softening at elevated temperatures and maintains a sharp cutting profile under intermittent loads. The Type N profile reduces flank wear during slotting operations in carbon and alloyed steels, extending tool life and reducing tooling change frequency. For operations where tool replacement interrupts production, this durability translates directly into higher machine uptime and predictable maintenance cycles.

Secure clamping and straightforward machine setup

A cylindrical shank with a drive flat and a 12 mm shank diameter enables secure clamping in standard holders and reduces the risk of slippage under axial load. The right‑hand cutting orientation matches conventional spindle rotation, simplifying setup and avoiding the need for reversible tooling fixtures. Machine operators benefit from rapid tool changes and stable cutting conditions, which together contribute to efficient cycle times and safer machining.

Designed for mixed‑material workshops and industrial use

The cutter’s specification positions it as a versatile choice for workshops that handle a mix of construction steels, quenched‑and‑tempered materials and short‑chip non‑ferrous metals. Its geometry and material selection make it suitable for conventional milling centres and universal milling machines alike. By choosing a tool with a proven standard specification, process planners gain clarity on attainable cutting parameters and predictable performance across commonly used materials.

FAQ

What materials is this cutter best suited for?
The MAYKESTAG slot milling cutter is specified for machining construction steels, quenched‑and‑tempered steels and short‑chip non‑ferrous metals, benefiting from the HSS‑Co cutting material and Type N geometry.

How many cutting edges does the tool have and what does that mean practically?
The cutter has 14 cutting edges; this high tooth count evens out cutting forces, reduces vibration and produces a finer surface finish during slotting operations.

What shank dimensions and clamping should be used?
The tool features a 12 mm cylindrical shank with a drive flat for secure clamping in standard collets or tool holders, ensuring stable performance under axial loads.

Is this cutter compatible with standard milling machines?
Yes, the design and DIN 850 D specification make it suitable for conventional milling centres and universal machines used in industrial workshops.

How does the HSS‑Co material affect tool life?
Cobalt‑alloyed HSS improves red hardness and wear resistance, maintaining cutting edge integrity at higher operating temperatures and extending service intervals for the cutter.
