The cutter measures 1.3386 inches in diameter with a 50 mm (approximately 1.969 inches) cutting depth and seats into a 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank, which provides positive rotational drive and prevents slippage under load. With two flats on the shank and a bright, uncoated finish, this cutter is suited for use in magnetic drill presses and compatible rotary broaching setups where precision hole quality and tool repeatability are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis annular cutter is built for structural steel fabrication, ironwork, and general metalworking applications where drilling through mild steel or steel plate is required. It is typically used in magnetic drill press operations on job sites or in fabrication shops. The Weldon flat connection system is the industry standard for mag drill arbors, allowing quick tool changes and secure chuck engagement. Licensed tradespeople in structural steel, HVAC ductwork, and electrical conduit work commonly reach for this cutter size when punching mounting or pass-through holes in steel members.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.3386-inch cutter diameter produces a consistent, clean hole without a center drill pilot through the full depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides durability and edge retention when cutting mild steel and steel plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50 mm cutting depth accommodates thicker steel stock in a single pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank with 2 flats ensures positive drive engagement and compatibility with standard mag drill arbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection of cutting edge condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for mild steel and steel material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with magnetic drill presses and rotary broaching units that accept a 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank arbor.

Secure the mag drill base firmly to the workpiece before beginning any cut, and ensure the arbor is fully engaged with both Weldon flats before applying power. Always use cutting fluid appropriate for steel to extend tool life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edge for damage before each use and remove the cutter from service if chipping or deformation is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3386 inches (34 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 mm (approximately 1.969 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mild Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.49 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: HOUGEN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12434\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOUGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700424245554,"sku":"12434","price":129.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6f368e4f82bdf7a74868e6a94ac7a9f7_20cd8c1b-c05e-47f0-9a2d-3b506ffb73f7.jpg?v=1788390162","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hougen-12434-annular-cutter-1-3386-in-hss-weldon-shank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
