Spiral router bit for aluminum & plastics VHM Z2 D16 I35 L80 S16 RH Finishing positive

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

Index: SQ01.16.035.080.16R

Industrial two-flute spiral end mill made of solid carbide (VHM) with a positive geometry (upward chip removal). The arrangement of two cutting edges (Z2) ensures higher tool rigidity, reduced vibration, and the possibility of using higher feeds while maintaining stability. The right-hand spiral effectively lifts the chips upwards, which guarantees cleanliness and no tearing on the lower edge of the machined material. Designed for precise cutting and edge jointing and smoothing in aluminium, plastics, and composite materials on CNC machining centres and milling machines. The finishing geometry combined with polished flutes prevents chip accumulation on the body. The ground shank in class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's spindle.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Two-flute design Z2 (positive): Two cutting edges increase the rigidity of the mill and allow for increased feed speeds with very smooth guidance in the material.
• Positive geometry (upward chip removal): The right-hand spiral directs chips upwards, preventing shredding and tearing on the underside of the workpiece.
• Polished flutes: The mirror finish of the spiral reduces friction, effectively preventing chips from sticking and welding to the body.
• Finishing cutter geometry: Precisely ground cutting edges ensure a smooth finish on machined surfaces.
• Solid carbide (VHM): Rigid and wear-resistant structure of the solid carbide reduces vibration and maintains dimensional precision.
• 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 according to ISO standards guarantees vibration-free operation at very high speeds.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is designed for cutting operations and for edge jointing and smoothing in aluminium, plastics, and composites on CNC machining centres.

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