Harvey Tool 22393-C3 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 22393-C3 is a solid carbide Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling keyseat slots in shafts and bores. It features a 0.25-inch cut diameter and a 0.093-inch cut width with a straight-tooth configuration across 6 flutes, producing accurate, flat-bottomed keyseats in a single pass. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. With a 1/4-inch shank diameter and a 2.5-inch overall length, it mounts directly into standard collets or end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

This cutter is suited for machining operations in metalworking environments where precision keyseat profiles are required. It is commonly used in shaft and hub assemblies across general machining, toolroom work, and production environments. The solid carbide construction and AlTiN finish make it appropriate for use in alloy steels, stainless steels, and other challenging workpiece materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals typically install this cutter in horizontal or vertical milling setups.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in ferrous and hardened materials
• AlTiN coating improves thermal resistance and extends cutting tool life
• Straight-tooth configuration with 6 teeth for clean, flat-bottomed keyseat profiles
• 0.25-inch cut diameter and 0.093-inch cut width for Woodruff keyseat applications
• 1/4-inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders
• 2.5-inch overall length provides adequate reach for typical shaft keyseat depths

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Woodruff keyseat cutter compatible with standard 1/4-inch collet and end mill holder tooling systems on CNC and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists familiar with milling machine toolholding systems. Secure the shank fully within the collet or holder to the manufacturer-recommended engagement depth before tightening. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing or inspecting the cutter. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use, as carbide tooling is brittle and should not be used if edge integrity is compromised.
