Spiral router bit Finishing VHM Z3 D16 I35 L90 S16 LH positive

VHM three-flute spiral end mill 16x35 mm from the SC01 series – perfect edge quality and high machining efficiency

Index: SC01.16.035.090.16L

High-performance spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) from the SC01 line, designed for tasks involving precise cutting, shaping, and finishing on overhead spindle milling machines and CNC centres. The tool uses a three-flute spiral geometry in a Z3 configuration with a positive layout, which ensures effective chip removal upwards. The use of high-quality micro-grain carbide provides high wear resistance and significantly extends the cutting edge's lifespan. The ground shank with a tolerance class of H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the spindle's bearing assembly and guaranteeing an excellent finish standard of the machined material. 

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Finishing geometry Z3 (upward chip removal): Three cutting edges ensure very high cutting performance, allow for operation at higher feed rates, provide an ideal finishing standard of edges, and enable efficient upward chip removal.
• Premium (VHM) sintered carbide monolith: The rigid, monolithic structure prevents deformation of the mill under high force, allowing for the maintenance of narrow dimensional tolerances.
• Possibility of PVD coating application: The option to apply protective layers (including TiSiN or PLATINIUM) allows for several times extension of the edge's lifespan, reduces friction, and protects against overheating.
• Low roughness of the shank: The surface of the shank with a roughness indicator of Ra ≤ 0.3 µm protects the mill from rotating in the holder and eliminates the risk of wearing down the cone in the spindle.
• Dynamic balancing to G2.5 standard: Certified static-dynamic balancing in the stringent class of G2.5 (according to ISO/EN) reduces noise and vibrations generated at high speeds (up to 18,000 RPM).

Intended use and application range:

The tool is intended for cutting operations, contour milling, and edge finishing.

It performs excellently in machining materials such as soft and hard wood, raw MDF board, plywood, and raw particleboard.
