Spiral router bit Roughing VHM Z3 D8 I32 L80 S8 LH positive

Three-tooth VHM roughing spiral end mill 8x32 mm from the SF01 series – maximum performance in rough machining 

Index: SF01.08.032.080.08L

Industrial spiral end mill made of solid carbide (VHM) from the SF01 line, designed for intensive cutting, preliminary shaping, and efficient rough machining on overhead spindle mills and CNC centres. The tool features a three-flute spiral geometry with a roughing profile in a Z3 configuration with a positive arrangement, ensuring efficient chip evacuation upwards and a clean finishing of the part's bottom edge. The dedicated roughing teeth effectively break down the material into smaller particles, reducing cutting resistance and easing the load on the machine's drive system. The ground shank in H6 tolerance class eliminates radial runout, protecting the spindle and guaranteeing a high level of stability during operation.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Roughing design Z3 (upward chip removal): Three cutting edges with a roughing profile reduce operating resistance, efficiently remove chips upwards, and allow for machining at high feed rates while maintaining a clean bottom edge.
• Solid Premium carbide (VHM): The rigid monolithic construction limits deflection of the tool under load and ensures high dimensional precision.
• Possibility of PVD coating application: The option to apply protective layers (including TiSiN or PLATINIUM) allows for multiple extensions of edge life, reduces friction, and protects against overheating.
• Low roughness of the shank: The surface of the shank has a roughness indicator of Ra ≤ 0.3 µm, preventing the mill from spinning in the holder and eliminating the risk of cone wear in the spindle.
• Dynamic balancing to G2.5 standard: Certified static-dynamic balancing in a rigorously high G2.5 class (according to ISO/EN) minimizes noise and reduces vibrations generated at the highest speeds.

Purpose and scope of application:

The tool is intended for operations such as cutting, preliminary shaping, and efficient rough machining.

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