Maykestag Solid Carbide HPC End Mill 5mm Speedcut-Universal Long Series

Professional 5mm solid carbide HPC end mill from the Maykestag Speedcut-Universal range, featuring four cutting flutes, unequal 35°-38° spiral angles, Type N geometry, ALUNIT-S® coating and a DIN 6535-HB shank for high-performance universal milling.

The Maykestag Code 7717 is a long-series solid carbide end mill designed for demanding universal milling applications. Its four-flute cutting geometry is combined with different spiral angles of 35°-38°, helping provide a controlled cutting action across a broad range of suitable engineering materials. The long-series DIN 6527 L construction provides additional cutting reach, while the DIN 6535-HB cylindrical shank with driving flat provides secure tool location in compatible holders.

What is an end mill with unequal spiral angles? An end mill with unequal spiral angles uses cutting flutes arranged with different helix angles rather than identical flute geometry around the cutter. This design changes the way individual cutting edges engage the workpiece and helps reduce the tendency for cutting forces to occur at identical intervals. On the Code 7717, Maykestag combines this geometry with four flutes and 35°-38° spiral angles for high-performance universal milling.

Why Choose Maykestag?

Maykestag is an Austrian cutting-tool brand focused on precision-manufactured tools for professional machining. Accurate control of cutting geometry, dimensional tolerances, carbide quality and coating technology is particularly important with high-performance milling cutters, where consistency directly influences machining accuracy, cutting behaviour and tool life.

The Code 7717 Speedcut-Universal range combines solid carbide construction, four cutting edges, unequal spiral angles and ALUNIT-S® coating in a long-series milling cutter. The DIN 6535-HB shank distinguishes this version by providing a driving flat for secure location in suitable holders, while the cutter geometry is designed for versatile use across the material groups rated by Maykestag.

Designed for High-Performance Universal Milling

The four-flute configuration and unequal 35°-38° spiral geometry provide a robust cutting arrangement for professional milling operations. The 5mm version has a 6mm shank, a 13mm cutting length and a 57mm overall length. A 0.25mm x 45° corner chamfer protects the cutting-edge corner, while the ALUNIT-S® coating supports the cutter during demanding machining conditions. For optimum performance, cutting speed and feed should be selected according to the workpiece material and machining operation.
