Harvey Tool 961080-C3 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter Carbide Altin

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 961080-C3 is a Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling keyseat slots in shafts and workpieces across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Built from brazed solid carbide with an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating, it delivers hard, heat-resistant cutting performance in demanding machining environments. The cutter measures 0.875 inches in diameter with a 0.312 inches cutting width and runs on a 1/2 inch shank diameter. With 12 straight teeth and an overall length of 3.312 inches, it is suited for production and job-shop machining operations performed by machinists and toolroom professionals.

This cutter is used in milling applications that require precise keyseat profiles for woodruff keys, commonly found in shaft-and-hub assemblies in mechanical, automotive, and industrial equipment. The straight tooth configuration is well matched to conventional milling setups on vertical knee mills and CNC machining centers. It is rated for primary workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, and cast iron, and also handles non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials as secondary workpiece categories.

Key Features

• Brazed solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating extends tool life in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and hard materials
• 0.875 inches cut diameter with 0.312 inches cutting width for standard woodruff keyseat profiles
• 12 straight teeth provide clean slot geometry on a wide range of workpiece materials
• 1/2 inch shank diameter compatible with standard milling chuck and collet setups
• 3.312 inches overall length provides adequate reach for typical shaft keyseat applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style keyseat cutter for use in standard milling machine setups; compatible with primary workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, and cast iron, and secondary materials including non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials, as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists. Secure the 1/2 inch shank firmly in a collet or milling chuck before use, and confirm runout is within acceptable tolerance for the application. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Do not exceed the manufacturer-recommended feed and speed parameters for the workpiece material and cutter diameter.
