Spiral router bit Finishing VHM Z3 D16 I52 L100 S16 RH positive

Three-flute spiral end mill VHM with chip breaker 16x52 mm from the SC03 series – maximum efficiency and high standard machining

Index: SC03.16.052.100.16R

High-performance spiral end mill made from solid sintered carbide (VHM) from the SC03 line, intended for efficient format machining, cutting, and rough and finish operations on overhead spindle milling machines and CNC centres. The tool features a three-flute spiral geometry in a Z3R configuration with a positive layout, which guarantees immediate removal of dust and chips upwards, maintaining perfect cleanliness of the lower edge. The applied chip breaker significantly reduces mechanical loads on the system and crushes the material, allowing work at increased feed rates without loss of stability. The ground shank in tolerance class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the spindle bearing system and ensuring impeccable detail quality.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Z3R chip breaker geometry (upward discharge): The arrangement of three cutting edges with a chip breaker reduces work resistance, facilitates the removal of crushed material, and allows for fast feed while achieving an ideal finish on the lower edge.
• Premium sintered carbide monolith (VHM): The rigid, monolithic structure prevents deformation of the mill during work under high force, allowing for precision cutting.
• Possibility of applying PVD coating: The option of applying protective layers (including TiSiN or PLATINIUM) allows for multiple extensions of edge life, reduces friction, and protects against overheating.
• Low roughness of the clamping part: The shaft surface with a roughness index of Ra ≤ 0.3 µm secures the mill against rotation in the holder and eliminates the risk of wear on the cone in the spindle.
• Dynamic balancing in standard G2.5: Certified static-dynamic balancing in the stringent class G2.5 (according to ISO/EN) eliminates noise and reduces vibrations generated at high speeds.

Purpose and range of application:

The tool is intended for cutting operations, contour milling, grooving, and medium rough and finishing machining.

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