Tool construction and application limits
T-slot cutter 22.5x4.0 mm DIN 850 A, listed in catalogs as NFRh, cuts narrow grooves and slots 4.0 mm wide. The Ø22.5 mm disc cuts across its full width and enters the material radially, without axial travel.
Six straight cutting edges cut around the disc periphery and on both faces, producing parallel slot sides. The neck behind the disc has no cutting edges and transmits all the torque – it limits the feed, not the cutting edges.
The slot has an arcuate bottom with a radius of 11.25 mm and a length determined by plunge depth. At t = 5 mm, the chord is l = 2√(t × (D − t)) ≈ 18.7 mm. The smooth bottom transition reduces stress concentration, which is why slots in parts subjected to variable loading are machined with a disc rather than an end mill.
Tool application range
The combination of Ø22.5 mm and a thickness of 4.0 mm falls outside the DIN 6888 Woodruff key series, so the cutter serves as a tool for grooves and slots: retaining ring grooves, seal grooves, recesses for sheet metal, and cutting through thin sections. Select the plunge depth to suit the required slot length, not the tool diameter – with the full disc width engaged, each additional millimeter of penetration increases cutting forces and neck loading.
Clamping: collet ER-32 with an insert for Ø10.0 mm. A drill chuck will not hold the tool with the disc fully engaged. Uncoated HSS works up to approximately 275 HB; above this, use the HSSE (HSS-Co5) version.
Conservative values by ISO 513 groups
| Workpiece material | vc [m/min] | fz [mm/tooth] | n [rpm] | vf [mm/min] |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P Structural steel up to 275 HB | 20–30 | 0.025–0.050 | 283–424 | 42–127 |
| P Quenched and tempered alloy steel | 15–25 | 0.025–0.050 | 212–354 | 32–106 |
| M Stainless steel 304 / 316 | 9–18 | 0.025–0.048 | 127–255 | 19–73 |
| K Gray cast iron | 18–30 | 0.025–0.060 | 255–424 | 38–153 |
| N Aluminum, brass | 25–50 | 0.025–0.065 | 354–707 | 53–276 |
For structural steel, use vc = 25 m/min – at a diameter of 22.5 mm, this gives 354 rpm. Calculate the feed rate from vf = fz × z × n: at fz = 0.035 mm and 6 cutting edges, the result is 74 mm/min. Chips exit through the same slot that supplies coolant, so direct the emulsion along the slot and maintain a generous flow.
Applications, clamping and cutting data
For grooves and slots 4.0 mm wide – grooves for retaining rings and seals, lubrication grooves, recesses for sheet metal, and cutting through thin walls.
collet ER-32 with an insert for Ø10.0 mm. The plain straight shank has no clamping flat, so a drill chuck is unsuitable.
No. The neck behind the disc has no cutting edges and breaks during axial entry. Feed the disc radially.
The length depends on plunge depth and disc diameter: l = 2√(t × (D − t)). At t = 5 mm and Ø22.5 mm, the result is approximately 18.7 mm.
