The Sutton E457 is a 4 flute 60° chamfer endmill in 4 sizes with 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm shanks. It is made from solid carbide (VHM) with a TiAlN coating, has straight flutes and a DIN 6535 HA plain shank (h6 tolerance), and is for chamfering and deburring component edges.The straight flute form is designed for smooth cutting, and the 60° form sets the chamfer angle. Solid carbide holds its edge in harder materials, and the TiAlN coating is designed for longer tool life. The application guide covers steels, stainless steels, cast irons, aluminium and copper alloys, titanium and high-temperature alloys, and hardened steel up to 55 HRC.Where this product is used Chamfering and deburring component edges on milling machines and machining centres. Finishing passes on steels, stainless steels, cast irons and non-ferrous metals. Edge breaking on hardened steel up to 55 HRC, plus titanium and high-temperature alloys. Applications include DIY, trade, industrial, metalworking, machine shop and MRO work. Design features 4 flute 60° chamfer endmill, straight flutes. Solid carbide (VHM) construction. TiAlN coating: designed for longer tool life. DIN 6535 HA plain shank, h6 tolerance. Finishing cut: designed for chamfering and deburring edges. 4 sizes: 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm shank. Using the chamfer endmill Hold the endmill in a milling chuck, collet or shrink-fit holder that grips the plain shank accurately and runs true. Use the lightest cut that breaks the edge cleanly, and keep the tool clamped as short as the job allows. Carbide is brittle: avoid shock loads and keep the workpiece clamped rigidly.
