Benefit from robust HSS cutting, a 6 mm cylindrical shank for stable clamping and a 118° point angle for accurate starts — order this tool directly via Metav Werkzeuge or contact our consultants for application support. Universal milling drill Ø 6 mm HSS — PTG Präzisions‑Technik, right‑hand cutting, cylindrical shank High-speed steel cutting material 118° point angle for precise starts 6 mm cylindrical shank for secure clamping Suitable for steel, non‑ferrous metals, wood and plastics Precise starts and predictable chip formation for reliable drilling The Universal milling drill Ø 6 mm, HSS delivers a controlled entry and consistent cutting action thanks to its 118° point angle and solid high‑speed steel composition. The relatively blunt point reduces wander on flat surfaces, which improves precision when establishing pilot holes or beginning contour cuts. HSS stands for high‑speed steel — a tool steel alloy that retains hardness at elevated temperatures, so the cutter keeps its edge during standard workshop operations. The result is fewer rework cycles and a steadier workflow in mixed‑material tasks. Secure clamping and broad material compatibility to reduce tool changes A 6 mm shank with cylindrical shank geometry provides stable seating in standard collets and chucks, reducing vibration and low run‑out during rotation. This stability directly contributes to improved surface finish and longer tool life. The cutter is designed for universal use: it suits steel, non‑ferrous metals, wood and plastics, enabling one cutter to cover a variety of jobs and cutting operations. Minimising tool changes increases throughput and simplifies set‑ups in busy workshops. Workshop‑ready design for contour milling and straightforward maintenance Built for both drilling and contour milling, the cutter features right‑hand cutting flutes that evacuate chips efficiently from pockets and edge cuts. The uncoated surface means the tool is straightforward to regrind when required, preserving its service life and making it easier to maintain in smaller shops. The combination of robust HSS, stable shank and simple geometry results in a tool that is easy to integrate into existing machining processes while offering predictable results for general and specialist tasks.

Take advantage of a compact combination of HSS cutting geometry, a cylindrical 8 mm shank, and a 118° tip that ensures precise centring and versatile contour milling across a range of materials — order directly from Metav Werkzeuge or contact our consultants for application advice. Universal milling drill 8 mm — HSS, 118° tip (PTG Präzisions‑Technik) A Universal milling drill 8 mm (HSS) designed for drilling and contour milling in steel, non‑ferrous metals, wood and plastics, suitable for general workshop and light industrial use HSS construction for reliable wear resistance 118° tip for accurate centring and clean starts Cylindrical shank Ø 8 mm for secure clamping Right‑hand cutting for standard machining tasks Consistent precision for mixed‑material production The combination of high‑speed steel (HSS) and a 118° tip provides stable cutting performance when switching between common workshop materials. HSS is a resilient tool steel that tolerates moderate heat and abrasion better than plain carbon steels; this means improved edge retention during repetitive contouring and drilling tasks. The slightly flattened tip angle aids initial centring and reduces walk‑off, producing cleaner entries in steel and non‑ferrous metals while still performing reliably in wood and plastics. For operations where reliability across different substrates matters, this tool reduces the need for multiple specialised cutters, supporting a smoother production flow. Secure clamping and straightforward handling A cylindrical shank with 8 mm diameter guarantees compatibility with standard collets and chucks commonly found in drills and milling machines. The plain shank geometry simplifies mounting and inspection, which shortens set‑up times and lowers the risk of slippage under moderate loads. Because the cutter is uncoated and right‑hand cutting, it is straightforward to resharpen and recondition in‑house where required, extending service life and helping to keep running costs predictable. This combination supports workshop efficiency by reducing downtime for tool changes and maintenance. Versatile application reduces tool inventory Engineered as a universal solution, the cutter is specified for both drilling and contour milling, enabling one tool to perform two related operations. The tool’s geometry is tuned to deliver acceptable surface quality and dimensional control across a range of materials, thus lowering the number of specialised tools needed at the bench. For small series and prototyping where flexibility is key, this approach saves time and simplifies logistics. Clear labelling and consistent dimensions also make inventory management and reordering more straightforward.
