VHM schachtfrees Ø 8,0 mm 19/63 Z5 HA8 AlTiN X-MILL 540 540

The MILL X-MILL 540 end mill stands apart from conventional solid carbide cutters through its optimized 5-flute geometry and advanced AlTiN coating. This combination permits higher feed rates and extended tool life, particularly in demanding materials like steel and stainless steel. With a cutting diameter of 8.0 mm and a cylindrical HA shank of the same size, it delivers stable clamping and precise concentricity for high-performance milling operations.

Highlights

• Solid carbide (VHM) construction for maximum rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating reduces friction and heat, enabling higher cutting speeds
• 5-flute design improves chip evacuation and surface finish
• Square end geometry suits slotting, shoulder milling, and profiling
• Cylindrical HA shank (8.0 mm) fits standard collets and hydraulic chucks

In daily use

On the shop floor, the X-MILL 540 proves its value in general-purpose and high-performance milling of steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. The 19 mm cutting length allows deep engagement, while the 63 mm overall length provides ample reach for common setups. Operators will notice reduced vibration and consistent tool life, even in interrupted cuts or when ramping into pockets. The AlTiN coating also minimizes built-up edge, keeping cutting edges sharp longer and reducing downtime for tool changes.
