Harvey Tool 64612-C3 Dovetail Cutter 3/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 64612-C3 is a solid carbide dovetail cutter designed for milling angled undercut features in precision machined components. With a 40-degree included angle and a cutter diameter of 0.1875 inches (3/16 inch), it cuts a width of 0.1250 inches (1/8 inch) per pass. The 2-flute geometry and AlTiN coating make it suitable for high-speed machining in ferrous and hardened materials where heat resistance and edge retention matter. The overall length is 2.0 inches with a 3/16-inch shank diameter. This cutter is used by CNC machinists and tool-and-die professionals who require consistent, repeatable dovetail profiles on tight-tolerance parts.

This dovetail cutter is suited for creating dovetail slots, locking features, and undercut geometries in milling centers. The compact 0.1875-inch maximum cutter diameter and 0.1010-inch minimum cutter diameter make it appropriate for small-scale dovetail work where larger tooling cannot access the geometry. The AlTiN coating extends tool life in hardened steels, stainless, and titanium alloys. It is packaged individually and typically run on CNC vertical machining centers or manual mills with appropriate RPM settings for carbide tooling.

Key Features

• 40-degree included angle for standard dovetail slot profiles
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating for heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and hard materials
• 2-flute design for efficient chip evacuation in small-diameter cuts
• 3/16-inch shank diameter compatible with standard collet systems
• Zero corner radius for sharp, clean dovetail transitions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide dovetail cutter compatible with standard 3/16-inch collet holders on CNC and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified CNC machinists or machining professionals. Secure the 3/16-inch shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before cutting. Power down and lock out the spindle before tooling changes. Follow the tool manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for speeds and feeds appropriate to solid carbide dovetail cutters at this diameter.
