Single-flute VHM spiral end mill for aluminium and plastics with upward chip removal – clean bottom edge and efficient chip discharge

Index: SP02.10.020.080.10R

Industrial single-flute spiral end mill made from solid tungsten carbide (VHM) with positive geometry and undercut (upward chip removal). The design featuring a body undercut facilitates penetration into the material, reduces total friction surface, and ensures optimal chip flow, eliminating the risk of tool clogging during deep machining. The tool has a spiral angle of 30° and a polished fluted groove, guaranteeing edge finish. It is dedicated to efficient cutting, grooving, and edge jointing and trimming in aluminium, ALU/PVC profiles, plastics, and composites on CNC machining centres and overhead spindle milling machines. The use of a special grade of carbide extends tool life, while the possibility of applying protective coatings reduces friction and increases work efficiency. The ground shank in class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's drive system.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Single-flute Z1 design with undercut (positive): Special body undercut facilitates entry into the material along the Z-axis, limits tool heating and reduces cutting resistance during deep passes.
• Spiral angle of 30° and polished groove: Precise 30° screw angle combined with the polished surface of the spiral eliminates chip welding and promotes smooth upward chip discharge.
• Special grade of carbide (VHM): Increased resistance to abrasive wear ensures long tool life during machining non-ferrous metals and plastics.
• Option for refining coatings: Design adapted for applications of protective coatings that reduce temperature in the cutting zone.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): Ground shank surface prevents slipping in the holder and protects the spindle taper from wear.
• Dynamic balancing in class G2.5: Balancing according to ISO standards guarantees vibration-free operation at very high rotational speeds.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is intended for cutting, grooving, and edge jointing and trimming operations in aluminium and profiles on CNC machining centres.

Used for machining materials such as: aluminium, aluminium and PVC profiles, ALUCOBOND® panels, ALUCOBOND® A2, and plastics.
