Built with a 48-degree included angle and a 0.284-inch cut diameter, it produces accurate dovetail profiles in a single pass. The 0.158-inch cutting width and 0.031-inch corner radius control chip load and surface finish in tight-tolerance slots and features. A Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) coating increases surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. Machinists and CNC operators install this cutter on vertical machining centers and manual mills where dovetail slides, fixtures, and T-slot profiles require consistent geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dovetail cutter fits standard milling setups using a 5\/16-inch shank diameter, making it compatible with common collet systems found on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. It is suited for dovetail slot production in steel, aluminum, cast iron, and similar materials where a TiAlN-coated carbide tool is appropriate. With only 2 cutting teeth, it is well-matched to applications requiring controlled chip evacuation in narrow, undercut profiles. Typical uses include fixture plates, machine ways, dovetail slides, and precision mechanical assemblies requiring repeatable undercut geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e48-degree included angle for standard dovetail profile cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.284-inch cut diameter with 0.158-inch cutting width for narrow slot work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating increases heat resistance and extends tool life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.031-inch corner radius reduces stress concentration at slot roots\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute geometry promotes chip clearance in confined undercut profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 5\/16-inch collet or end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Power down the spindle and confirm the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the 5\/16-inch shank fully into a clean, undamaged collet or holder and torque the retention nut per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or coating damage before use, and verify runout with a dial indicator when tolerances are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.284 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.158 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Teeth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HARVEY TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23828-C3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728829677874,"sku":"23828-C3","price":194.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3453b6314849a6bd04944a0cf5cae6c3.jpg?v=1788696511","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-23828-c3-dovetail-cutter-48-deg-0-284-in-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
