Description
Overview:
The Timco HSS Broaching Cutter is a 23 mm diameter cutting tool with a 30 mm length designed for fast, accurate hole making in metal. Made from high‐grade High‐Speed Steel (HSS) and coated with Titanium Aluminium Nitride (TiAlN), it offers high hardness, heat resistance, and long service life under demanding conditions. Engineered for magnetic drilling machines and other compatible arbour systems, it produces clean, precise holes with minimal burr, helping reduce finishing time. The robust construction makes it suitable for site work and workshop use alike, handling structural steel, plate, and common engineering metals with consistent results. A practical choice for tradespeople and DIY users who need dependable performance for fabrication, installation, and maintenance tasks.
Key Features:
- 23 mm diameter for accurate clearance and fixing holes in structural and general steelwork
- 30 mm length suited to common plate thicknesses and sections
- High‐grade HSS body for strength, toughness, and edge retention
- TiAlN coating improves wear resistance and heat tolerance for longer cutting life
- Precision‐ground edges deliver clean, round holes with reduced burr
- Flute design promotes efficient swarf evacuation to maintain cutting speed
- Reliable performance in magnetic drills; use with suitable pilot pin and cutting fluid where required
- Helps reduce drilling time and power demand compared with conventional twist drills
- Consistent tolerances aid accurate fit for bolts, rivnuts, and fixings
- Straightforward to install and remove using standard compatible arbour systems
Typical Applications:
Producing precise holes in structural beams, plates, brackets, and box section; fabrication of frames and handrails; on‐site installation of fixings and baseplates; maintenance work in workshops, plant rooms, and construction sites. Suitable for cutting through steel and common engineering metals where accurate, repeatable holes are required.
