With a 1-inch cutting diameter and a 2-inch depth of cut, this cutter removes only a narrow ring of material rather than a solid slug, reducing power draw and heat buildup compared to twist drills. The M2 high speed steel construction is finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, which extends cutting life and reduces friction against tough workpiece materials. It fits magnetic drill presses and drill press setups equipped with a 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank interface. Metalworkers and fabricators are the primary installers of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis annular cutter is suited for production and field work involving mild steel, stainless steel, and general steel fabrication. The 2-inch depth of cut handles most structural steel thicknesses found in steel erection, pipe fitting, and ironwork applications. The Weldon flat shank with two flats locks securely into compatible chuck systems, preventing slippage under the torque loads typical in magnetic drill operation. It is appropriate for both shop use and on-site drilling where a portable magnetic drill is deployed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch cutter diameter with 2-inch depth of cut for structural steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for durability in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank with 2 flats for positive, slip-resistant chuck engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with mild steel, stainless steel, and general steel workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnnular cutting geometry reduces power draw versus solid twist drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with magnetic drill presses and drill stands that accept a 3\/4-inch Weldon flat shank.

Secure the Weldon shank fully into the chuck and tighten all set screws against the flats before beginning any cut. Use an appropriate cutting fluid or pilot pin lubricant to manage heat, particularly when cutting stainless steel. Always clamp or mag-lock the drill firmly to the workpiece and confirm the work area is clear before engaging the cutter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 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: High Speed Steel (M2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\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: 0.32 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 12732\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOUGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51724000231730,"sku":"12732","price":110.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6c23028e69d85be338e8b646d615c8cd.jpg?v=1788611323","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hougen-12732-annular-cutter-1in-x-2in-hss-tin-weldon","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
