Spiral router bit Roughing VHM Z3 D10 I32 L80 S10 LH positive

Carbide roughing spiral end mill 10x32 mm from the SF01 series – maximum efficiency in rough machining 

Index: SF01.10.032.080.10L

Industrial spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) from the SF01 line, designed for intensive cutting, preliminary shaping, and efficient rough machining on vertical machining centres and CNC milling machines. The tool features a three-flute spiral geometry with a coarse profile in a Z3 configuration with a positive layout, which ensures efficient chip removal upwards and a clean finish on the bottom edge of the workpiece. The dedicated roughing teeth effectively break the material into smaller pieces, reducing cutting resistance and relieving the machine's drive system. The ground shank with a tolerance class of H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the spindle and ensuring a high level of stability during operation.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Z3 roughing design (upward chip removal): Three cutting edges with a roughing profile reduce work resistance, efficiently remove chips upwards, and allow for machining at high feed rates while maintaining a clean bottom edge.
• Monolithic Premium carbide (VHM): The rigid monolithic design limits tool deflection under load and ensures high dimensional precision.
• Possibility of applying PVD coating: The option to apply protective layers (including TiSiN or PLATINIUM) can significantly extend the tool's edge life, reduce friction, and protect against overheating.
• Low roughness of the tool holder: The shank surface with a roughness indicator of Ra ≤ 0.3 µm prevents the mill from spinning in the holder and eliminates the risk of wear on the spindle taper.
• Dynamic balancing to G2.5 standard: Certified static-dynamic balancing in the high standard of G2.5 (according to ISO/EN) eliminates noise and reduces vibrations generated at high speeds.

Purpose and applications:

The tool is designed for cutting, preliminary shaping, and efficient rough machining operations.

It works excellently for machining materials such as: soft and hard wood, plywood, as well as raw particle board and raw MDF board.
