Maykestag Solid Carbide 1-Flute End Mill Aluminium & Plastics 3.00mm Type W Left-Hand Spiral

High-speed 1-flute milling for aluminium and plastics. The Maykestag Code 6215 is a solid carbide single-flute end mill designed specifically for aluminium and plastic machining. This 3.00mm version features a right-hand cutting direction with a left-hand 30° spiral, making it particularly well suited to high-speed contour and profile milling applications.

The Maykestag Code 6215 3.00mm solid carbide 1-flute end mill combines a single cutting edge with a large chip space and a 30° left-hand spiral. The Type W geometry is designed for machining aluminium and plastics, where efficient chip evacuation and productive cutting are important.

With a 3.00mm cutting diameter, 3.00mm h6 shank and 38mm overall length, this compact cutter is suitable for precision CNC machining of aluminium, plastics and related non-ferrous applications. The tool is uncoated and uses a DIN 6535-HA cylindrical shank.

A 1-flute end mill has a single cutting edge and therefore provides a particularly large flute space for chip evacuation. This geometry is especially useful when machining materials such as aluminium and plastics at high spindle speeds, where efficient removal of large volumes of chips is important.

The 30° left-hand spiral on this Maykestag cutter is combined with a right-hand cutting direction to provide the specific cutting geometry required by the Code 6215 range.

• HSC geometry for high-speed machining applications

Single-flute end mills provide a large flute volume relative to the cutter diameter. This gives chips more space to leave the cutting zone, which is particularly valuable when machining soft, ductile materials such as aluminium and many plastics at high spindle speeds.

The Maykestag Code 6215 combines this single-flute configuration with a 30° left-hand spiral and Type W geometry to provide a specialised solution for aluminium and plastic machining.
