Cutter / End Mill FANAR Frez TRZPIENIOWY WEGLEK FI 10.0 22/72 Z4 HB10 VHM AT 440N X-MILL 440N

Solid carbide shank end mill FANAR X-MILL 440N is designed for precision machining of metal parts. The tool has a 10.0 mm cutting diameter, a flute length of 22 mm and an overall length of 72 mm, with four cutting edges and HB10 geometry. Manufactured from solid carbide with an AT surface treatment, this end mill delivers high rigidity and wear resistance for milling, slotting and finishing operations.

Advantages

The solid carbide construction provides dimensional stability and resistance to bending under load. The four cutting edges (Z4) and HB10 geometry optimise chip evacuation and cutting forces for consistent surface quality. The AT coating increases tool life and reduces built-up edge when machining steels and other alloys. Compact flute length and overall geometry ensure reliable engagement in confined slots and cavities.

Suitable for

• Roughing and finishing of steel and alloy components
• Slotting and pocket machining in moulds and dies
• High-precision profiling and contouring
• Operations requiring high rigidity and repeatable tolerances

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 10.0 mm
• Flute length: 22 mm
• Overall length: 72 mm
• Number of cutting edges: 4
• Geometry: HB10
• Material: solid carbide (VHM)
• Coating: AT surface treatment

How to use

Mount the end mill securely in a compatible tool holder with correct clamping length to minimise deflection. Select feeds and speeds according to workpiece material, machine rigidity and cutter engagement; start with conservative parameters and adjust based on chip formation and surface finish. Use appropriate coolant or cutting fluid for the material being machined to extend tool life and control cutting temperature. Inspect the tool regularly for wear or chipping and replace when tolerance or finish degrades.

Usage recommendations

For best results when machining steels and hardened alloys, use moderate radial immersion and higher axial depths within machine and tool limits, maintain stable clamping of the workpiece, and monitor chip evacuation. Avoid excessive runout and heavy interrupted cuts to preserve cutting edge integrity.
