Dorian Tool 73310120610 Cut Knurler Straight Pattern

Product Description

The DORIAN TOOL 73310120610 is a cut knurler designed for machining operations that require a clean, precise straight knurl pattern on workpiece surfaces. The tool body accepts two knurl wheels, which are included, and features a 3/4 inch wide head on a 5-5/8 inch long shank. Cut knurling applies a shearing action rather than displacing material, making it well suited for harder workpiece materials and situations where dimensional accuracy and surface finish are critical. The Series M designation indicates this tool fits within the Dorian M-series knurling system. At 2.71 pounds, the tool is built for rigid setup in production or jobshop lathe work.

This cut knurler is intended for use on manual or CNC engine lathes where a straight knurl pattern is specified for grip surfaces, hand-tightened fasteners, press-fit components, or decorative finishes. The 5-5/8 inch shank length accommodates standard tool post and quick-change toolholder setups. The included knurl wheels allow the operator to begin use immediately without sourcing separate wheel sets. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in metalworking shops, production facilities, or apprenticeship training environments are the primary installers and users of this tool.

Key Features

• Cut knurling action for precise straight patterns with minimal radial pressure on the workpiece
• 3/4 inch wide head for consistent tracking across the knurl face
• 5-5/8 inch long shank for compatibility with standard lathe tool posts and quick-change holders
• Requires two knurl wheels - both straight-pattern wheels included
• Series M system for consistent wheel interchangeability within the Dorian M-series lineup

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and direct-use cut knurler for lathes that accept standard shank tooling with a 3/4 inch wide tool body within the Dorian Series M knurling system.

Installation Notes

A qualified machinist should mount the knurler in a rigid tool post or quick-change toolholder and verify that the shank is fully seated and clamped before engaging the workpiece. Ensure the lathe spindle is at a complete stop before installing or removing knurl wheels. Set proper feed rate and spindle speed per the workpiece material before beginning the knurling pass. Do not exceed the tool's designed radial load capacity by applying excessive infeed on a single pass.
