Description
Overview:
The Timco HSS Broaching Cutter is a precision metal-cutting tool for fast, accurate hole making with magnetic drills and compatible drilling systems. Manufactured from high-speed steel and finished with a Titanium Aluminium Nitride (TiAlN) coating, it is built to resist heat, wear, and chipping during continuous use. This cutter produces a clean, burr-reduced hole by removing a core (slug) rather than drilling the full diameter, reducing effort compared with a twist drill. Size: 17 mm diameter (0.67 inches) with a 30 mm cutting depth (1.18 inches), suitable for common plate, beam, and fabrication work in mild and structural steel. Its robust build and consistent cutting geometry make it a reliable choice for site work, workshop use, repairs, and maintenance tasks where accuracy and repeatability matter.
Key Features:
- High-speed steel body for strength and long service life in regular metalworking use
- Titanium Aluminium Nitride coating enhances heat resistance, wear resistance, and edge retention
- 17 mm diameter (0.67 inches) for precise hole sizing in steel plates and sections
- 30 mm cutting depth (1.18 inches) suits typical structural and fabrication thicknesses
- Precision-ground teeth for smooth cutting, reduced vibration, and cleaner hole finish
- Efficient core-cutting action reduces feed force compared with conventional twist drills
- Reliable performance in magnetic drills and compatible arbors designed for broaching cutters
- Suitable for through-holes and repeatable production work where accurate tolerances are required
- Robust construction helps maintain accuracy over multiple cuts when used with appropriate cutting fluid
- Designed to deliver clean slug ejection to support consistent cutting speed and finish
Typical Applications:
Steel fabrication, site installation, and on-frame drilling for beams, brackets, and plates. Useful for maintenance and repair tasks in workshops, construction, and engineering. Ideal for creating bolt holes, clearance holes, and conduit runs in mild and structural steel when using a magnetic drill, ensuring fast, accurate results with minimal rework.
Also known as:
Annular hole saw, mag drill cutter, core cutter, hole broach, metal core drill, broach bit, ring cutter, circular broach, HSS hole cutter.
