The Hougen 12,000 Series Annular Cutters provide better chip evacuation which requires less horsepower and offers better performance in deeper holes. This is because only a thin area of material actually touches the outside of the hole. Hougen has perfected this design so that there is less friction and a better hold finish. Hougen’s patented Edge geometry provides faster, smoother cuts with less chatter because each tooth has two or three angles to them. The I.D. Taper provides a relief area between slug and cutter that reduces horsepower and improves slug ejection. The two flats for cutter mounting is very rigid and offers up to two times the tool life compared to one touch mounting and quick change systems. Rotabroach cutters can be resharpened up to 15 times to save you money.

Features:

• Two flats for cutter mounting, O.D. Margins, I.D. Margins, fully fluted tools, patented tooth geometries, material types, coatings, and resharpenability.
• Patented Hougen-Edge Geometry A patented tooth geometry that provides long tool life, less chatter, and extended resharpenability.
• Compared to traditional tooling (twist drills, etc.) Rotabroach cutters can multiply your cutting speed by up to 3 times.
• You get longer tool life, a more accurate hole, a better finish, with no burrs.
• Maximize feed rates because up to 10 or more cutting edges distribute the cutting load evenly.
• By converting a smaller area to chips, Rotabroach Cutters require less horsepower and thrust.
