straight router bit for foam & plastics VHM Z2 D8 I15 L60 S8 RH Finishing

Two-flute VHM finishing cutter for foams and plastics – neutral chip removal and smooth edge

Index: SY26.08.015.060.08XR

Industrial two-flute straight cutter made from solid carbide (VHM) with simple blade geometry (neutral chip removal to the sides). The Z2 design is intended for precise finishing of foams, plastics, and composite panels. The straight cutting edges do not exert vertical forces (either compressive or lifting), preventing deformation of soft materials and ensuring a smooth finish on both sides of the workpiece. Polished chip flutes reduce friction and prevent the sticking and melting of soft plastics. The tool is dedicated to finishing cuts, jointing, and grooving on CNC machining centres and overhead milling machines. The ground shank in class H6 eliminates radial runout and protects the spindle from vibrations.

Construction advantages and technical properties:

• Two-flute straight geometry (Z2): Neutral cutting direction eliminates pressure and lifting of the material, protecting delicate structures from deformation.
• Polished chip flutes: Smooth surface facilitates free removal of chips, preventing plastics from melting and sticking to the cutting edges.
• Solid carbide (VHM): Rigid construction ensures dimensional stability and longer tool life during continuous operation.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): Ground shank prevents slipping in the holder and protects the spindle cone from wear.
• Dynamic balancing G2.5: Compliance with ISO standards allows for smooth, vibration-free operation at high rotational speeds.

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

Purpose and areas of application:

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

Used in the processing of materials such as: technical foams (PE, PUR), plastics (PMMA, PVC, PE), as well as composites such as CORIAN® and HPL.
