Harvey Tool 22247-C3 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter 3/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 22247-C3 is a Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling Woodruff keyseats in shafts and other precision machined components. It features a 0.1875-inch cutting diameter, a 0.047-inch cutting width, and a 3/16-inch shank diameter, making it suited for small-scale keyway work where dimensional accuracy is critical. Constructed from solid carbide and finished with an AlTiN coating, it delivers hardness and heat resistance for use in a range of materials including steel and stainless. The straight-tooth configuration provides clean, controlled cuts. Machinists and toolmakers install this cutter in milling machines or machining centers as part of standard shaft preparation workflows.

This cutter is used in job shops, production machining environments, and toolroom applications where Woodruff keyseats must be cut to tight tolerances. With a 2-inch overall length and 6 teeth, it is suited for light-duty passes in smaller diameter shafts typical of precision mechanical assemblies. The AlTiN finish extends tool life in harder workpiece materials and elevated cutting temperatures. It is a single-piece, solid carbide construction with no brazed components, which reduces runout and improves repeatability.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and tool life in hard materials
• 0.1875-inch cutting diameter with 0.047-inch cutting width for precise keyseating
• Straight-tooth configuration for controlled, consistent cuts
• 6-tooth design balances chip clearance and cut stability
• 3/16-inch shank diameter compatible with standard collet and toolholder systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Woodruff keyseat cutter for use in milling machines and machining centers accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter toolholder or collet.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists using a collet or endmill holder matched to the 3/16-inch shank. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Secure the shank with adequate clamping length to minimize runout. Follow the tool manufacturer and machine tool builder guidelines for feed rate, speed, and depth of cut appropriate to the workpiece material.
