class=\"info-products\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003eYellow ring classification\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe yellow identification ring on the Code 7250 cutter identifies the \u003cstrong\u003eSpeedcut-Aluminium\u003c\/strong\u003e application family. The geometry of this series is developed primarily around the machining characteristics of aluminium and suitable non-ferrous materials, where efficient chip evacuation and a clean cutting action are particularly important.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does Type W mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eType W identifies a cutting geometry intended for comparatively soft and long-chipping materials. In the Code 7250 range, this geometry works together with the large flute spaces and Speedcut-Aluminium design to promote efficient chip evacuation when machining aluminium and other suitable non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy unequal spiral angles?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Code 7250 uses different spiral angles between \u003cstrong\u003e34° and 38°\u003c\/strong\u003e. Unequal helix geometry changes the timing with which the individual cutting edges engage the workpiece. This helps prevent cutting forces from repeating at exactly the same interval and can reduce vibration, support quieter machining and improve the resulting surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eUnderstanding the neck-relieved design\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe cutting section has a diameter of 5.00mm, while the relieved neck behind it is reduced to 4.60mm. This slight reduction provides clearance between the cutter body and the workpiece. The cutting length is 13mm, while the relieved working section extends to 18mm, allowing additional access when milling deeper shoulders and profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does DIN 6527 L mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIN 6527 L\u003c\/strong\u003e identifies the dimensional standard and long-series configuration used for this end mill. The longer geometry provides additional reach compared with shorter milling cutters, while the neck relief helps maintain workpiece clearance during deeper machining operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch4\u003e45° corner chamfer\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5mm cutter incorporates a \u003cstrong\u003e0.06mm chamfer at 45°\u003c\/strong\u003e on the cutting corner. This small protective chamfer reinforces the cutting edge and helps reduce the risk of premature corner damage while maintaining the geometry required for accurate milling.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"readmanual-products\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eGet the Right Cutting Data  \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mayspeedguide.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"btn btn-primary\" style=\"color: white;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"padding-right: 8px; color: yellow;\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa fa-calculator\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eSpeedGuide Calculator\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaySpeedGuide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maykestag recommends using the MaySpeedGuide to determine the appropriate cutting conditions for the tool, workpiece material and machining application.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"tip-products\"\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptimise machining performance.\u003c\/strong\u003e Correct cutting speed, feed rate, toolholding, chip evacuation and machining conditions help maximise tool life, surface finish and cutting performance.\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Saddle Creek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67536597057826,"sku":"MAY72500050","price":1976.28,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/saddlecreek.co.za\/products\/maykestag-vhm-solid-carbide-end-mill-speedcut-aluminium-5mm-long-series-neck-relief-3-flute-unequal-helix","provider":"Saddle Creek","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
