Harvey Tool 894760-C6 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 894760-C6 is a solid carbide Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling semicircular keyseats in shafts and mating components. With a 0.375-inch cutting diameter and a 0.125-inch cutting width, it produces precise keyseat geometry in a single pass. The 3/8-inch shank diameter mates with standard collets and tool holders. An AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life when cutting ferrous and hardened materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this cutter on manual mills and CNC machining centers where tight keyseat tolerances are required.

This cutter is suited for keyseat operations in precision shaft work, power transmission components, and fixture fabrication. The straight-tooth configuration with 10 teeth supports clean chip evacuation and consistent surface finish on steel, stainless, and cast iron workpieces. At 3.0 inches overall length, it provides adequate reach for standard shaft-mounted keyseat applications without sacrificing rigidity. It is appropriate for both production and toolroom environments.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in ferrous cutting
• AlTiN coating enhances heat resistance and extends tool life in dry or semi-dry cutting conditions
• 0.375-inch cutting diameter with 0.125-inch cutting width for standard Woodruff keyseat profiles
• 10 straight teeth for consistent chip load and surface finish
• 3/8-inch shank diameter fits standard ER and end mill collet systems
• 3.0-inch overall length provides reach with minimal deflection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Woodruff keyseat cutter compatible with standard 3/8-inch collet and end mill tool holders used on vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with milling cutter safety practices. Secure the shank fully in the collet or tool holder and verify runout before cutting. Ensure the machine spindle is at a full stop before tool changes. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for speeds, feeds, and depth of cut when working with carbide end mills and keyseat cutters.
