straight router bit for foam & plastics VHM Z2 D6 I15 L60 S6 RH Finishing

Two-flute VHM finishing end mill for foams and plastics – neutral chip ejection and smooth edge

Index: SY26.06.015.060.06XR

The industrial two-flute end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) features a simple blade geometry (neutral chip ejection to the sides). The Z2 design is intended for precise finishing of foams, plastics, and composite sheets. The straight cutting edges do not exert vertical forces (neither pressing nor lifting), preventing deformation of soft materials and ensuring a smooth finish on both sides of the workpiece. The polished flutes reduce friction and prevent sticking and melting of soft plastics. This tool is dedicated to finishing cuts, jointing, and grooving on CNC machining centres and cantilever milling machines. The ground shank in H6 tolerance eliminates radial runout and protects the spindle from vibrations.

Construction advantages and technical properties:

• Two-flute simple geometry (Z2): A neutral cutting direction eliminates pressure and lifting of the material, protecting delicate structures from deformation.
• Polished flutes: The smooth surface facilitates the free removal of chips, preventing melting of plastics and build-up on the cutting edges.
• Solid carbide (VHM): A rigid construction ensures dimensional stability and longer tool life during continuous operation.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground shank prevents slipping in the holder and protects the spindle taper from wear.
• Dynamic balance G2.5: Compliance with ISO standards enables smooth, vibration-free operation at high rotational speeds.

• NaDia protective coating: A specialised protective layer with a very low friction coefficient (0.01–0.05) and high hardness (3650 HV 0.05) protects the cutting edge from wear, prevents chip build-up, and significantly extends tool life.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is designed for finishing cuts, jointing, and grooving of soft and hard plastic materials on CNC machines.

Used for machining materials such as: technical foams (PE, PUR), plastics (PMMA, PVC, PE), as well as composite materials like CORIAN® and HPL.
