It cuts a 1-1\/4 inch diameter hole to a depth of 2 inches, removing only the material at the hole perimeter rather than boring out the full slug. The cutter is made from M2 grade high speed steel and finished with a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating that reduces friction, extends edge life, and helps resist heat buildup during prolonged cuts. The Weldon Flat shank with two flats provides a secure, non-slip connection to magnetic drill presses and compatible rotary broaching setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 12740 is suited for structural steel fabrication, ironworking, and general metalworking applications where clean hole tolerances matter. It is appropriate for use on mild steel, stainless steel, and carbon steel workpieces. The 3\/4 inch Weldon shank is the standard interface for magnetic base drills used in field ironworking, steel erection, and shop fabrication environments. Licensed contractors and fabricators in HVAC ductwork, mechanical piping, and structural steel trades commonly use cutters in this size range for pipe penetrations, flange prep, and bracket mounting holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch cutting diameter with 2 inch depth of cut for through-holes in structural steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for durability and edge retention across ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium Nitride (TiN) coating reduces heat and friction, extending tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch Weldon Flat shank with two flats for secure, slip-resistant chuck engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for mild steel, stainless steel, and carbon steel material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with magnetic drill presses and rotary broach setups that accept a 3\/4 inch Weldon Flat shank.

Secure the cutter firmly using the Weldon Flat flats before powering the drill. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant on the workpiece to manage heat and prolong cutting edge life. Always clamp or magnetically secure the workpiece per standard metalworking practice before initiating the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (1.2500 inches)\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: 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\u003eCutter Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.42 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: 12740\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOUGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694839169330,"sku":"12740","price":140.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5250e73949dcdbd7cece9bb7b99aa90f.jpg?v=1788328928","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hougen-12740-annular-cutter-1-1-4-in-2-in-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
