This slot drill is engineered for dependable, repeatable performance across common milling tasks. The powder‑metallurgical HSS‑E composition offers improved hardness and wear resistance over traditional HSS, helping extend tool life and maintain sharpness through demanding cuts. The 30° helix and 12° rake angle optimize chip formation and reduce cutting forces, contributing to cleaner slots and better surface finishes. The 10 mm Weldon shank provides secure, toolholder-friendly engagement in standard milling setups, supporting accurate, vibration-free performance during slotting, shoulder work, and ramping maneuvers.
