Spiral router bit for aluminum & plastics VHM Z1 D4 I8 L60 S6 RH Finishing positive

Single-edged spiral end mill VHM for aluminium with upward chip removal – clean lower edge and efficient chip removal

Index: SP01.04.008.060.06HR

Industrial single-edged spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip removal). Designed for efficient and precise cutting as well as edge welding and levelling in aluminium, composite materials, and plastics on CNC machining centres and overhead milling machines. Finishing geometry with a single cutting edge (Z1), combined with a polished chip flute, effectively prevents chip sticking and material build-up on the cutting edge. The right-hand spiral geometry rapidly removes debris upwards, protecting the cutting zone from overheating and ensuring a clean, finished edge surface. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's drive system and ensuring a high level of machining stability.

Design advantages and technical specifications:

• Single-edged Z1 (positive) design: The single cutting edge provides a large chip space, allowing for immediate chip evacuation and reducing cutting resistance.
• Polished chip flute: The mirror finish of the spiral surface prevents chips of aluminium from sticking and welding to the body of the mill.
• Finishing blade geometry: The precisely sharpened edge allows for a clean surface without the need for additional finishing.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid VHM construction dampens vibrations and ensures a long tool life when working with non-ferrous metals.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground shank surface prevents slipping in the tool holder and protects the spindle taper from wear.
• Dynamic balancing in class G2.5: Balancing in accordance with ISO standards guarantees vibration-free operation at very high rotational speeds.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is intended for cutting operations as well as edge welding and levelling in aluminium and composites on CNC machining centres.

Used for machining materials such as: aluminium, ALUCOBOND® panels, ALUCOBOND® A2, plastics, and composites like CORIAN® and HPL.
