Hougen® 12000-Series 5/8 Stack Geometry Annular Cutter has 1 maximum depth of cut and features hardened M2 high-speed steel material which is accurately ground for ultimate cutting experience while delivers longer life span. Cutter incorporates 3/4 double-flatted shank which is very rigid while offers elongated tool life as well as lower cost per hole. It is compatible with Hougen® portable magnetic drills and many competitive models on materials up to 275 BHN. Cutter needs minimum horsepower and thrust to cut and endeavors longer life span traditional hole making methods while it can be resharpened.
