At 11\/16 inches in cutting diameter and a 2-inch depth of cut, it handles structural steel, plate, and tube applications where a standard twist drill would require excessive force and leave a rough bore. The M2 high speed steel construction provides heat resistance and edge retention under continuous use. A titanium nitride (TiN) finish reduces friction and extends tool life between resharpening intervals. This cutter is sized for use in magnetic drill presses and similar annular cutter-compatible drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe HOUGEN 12722 is suited for fabrication shops, ironworkers, structural steel contractors, and maintenance trades working with mild steel, stainless steel, and general steel stock. Typical applications include beam drilling, angle iron perforation, and plate work where a 11\/16-inch hole is required at depths up to 2 inches. The 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank with two flats provides positive drive engagement in compatible mag drill chucks and arbors, reducing slip under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11\/16 inches cutting diameter with 2-inch depth of cut for deep through-hole capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces cutting friction and extends edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank with two flats for positive chuck engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemoves a plug rather than converting full material to chips, lowering cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with mild steel, stainless steel, and general steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in magnetic drill presses and annular cutter arbors accepting a 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank.

Secure the workpiece and confirm the mag drill base has full magnetic contact before beginning a cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant to manage heat at the cutting edge and extend tool life. Inspect the shank seating in the arbor and confirm the set screw engages the Weldon flat fully before applying load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\/16 inches (0.6875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\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: M2 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 12722\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOUGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694923120946,"sku":"12722","price":83.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/25d80e774921161c4f67afbd26f2cc3a.jpg?v=1788329689","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hougen-12722-annular-cutter-11-16-in-2-in-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
