Spiral router bit for aluminum & plastics VHM Z2 D12 I45 L90 S12 RH Finishing positive

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

Index: SQ01.12.045.090.12R

Industrial two-flute spiral end mill made of solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip removal). The two cutting edges (Z2) provide higher tool stiffness, reduce vibrations, and allow for higher feed rates while maintaining stability. The right-handed helical design effectively lifts the chips upward, ensuring cleanliness and preventing tearing on the bottom edge of the machined material. Designed for precise cutting, seam welding, and edge truing in aluminium, plastics, and composite materials on CNC machining centres and router machines. The finishing geometry combined with polished chip flutes prevents the body from being clogged with chips. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine spindle.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Two-flute design Z2 (positive): Two cutting edges increase the stiffness of the mill and allow for increased feed speeds with very smooth material guidance.
• Positive geometry (upward chip removal): The right-handed spiral directs chips upward, preventing fraying and tearing on the underside of the machined plate.
• Polished chip flutes: The mirror-like surface of the spiral reduces friction, effectively preventing chips from sticking and fusing with the body.
• Finishing edge geometry: Precisely ground cutting edges ensure a smooth finish on cut surfaces.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid and wear-resistant structure of the solid carbide reduces vibrations and maintains dimensional accuracy.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground surface of the shank prevents slipping in the holder and protects the spindle taper from wear.
• Dynamic balancing in class G2.5: Balancing in accordance with ISO standards ensures vibration-free operation at very high speeds.

Application and scope of use:

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

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