With a 1-3\/4 inch cutting diameter and a 2 inch depth of cut, this cutter removes only the material at the hole perimeter rather than converting the entire slug to chips, dramatically reducing cutting force and heat. The M2 high speed steel construction is finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating that extends tool life and reduces friction at the cutting edge. It mounts via a 3\/4 inch Weldon flat shank with two flats for secure tool-holder engagement. Installed by machinists, ironworkers, and fabricators using magnetic drill presses or milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 12756 is suited for production and field use where clean through-holes are required in mild steel, stainless steel, and general steel plate or structural members. The 2 inch depth of cut accommodates thicker stock and allows the cutter to pass through standard structural sections in a single plunge. The Weldon shank interface is the industry-standard connection for portable magnetic drill presses, making this cutter compatible with a wide range of magnetic base drills and stationary drill press arbors fitted with a 3\/4 inch Weldon chuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-3\/4 inch cutting diameter with 2 inch depth of cut for thick stock and structural sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for durability across mild steel and stainless steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and extends cutting edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch Weldon flat shank with 2 flats for positive, slip-resistant tool-holder engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnnular cutting geometry removes a core slug instead of full-diameter chips, reducing heat and cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with magnetic drill presses, stationary drill presses, and milling machines equipped with a 3\/4 inch Weldon flat shank chuck or arbor.

Secure the shank fully into the Weldon chuck and tighten the set screw against the flat to prevent pull-out under load. Always apply cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel or thick steel plate to extend tool life and manage heat. Ensure the magnetic base or drill press is locked and stable before beginning the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/4 inches (1.7500 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\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: 0.63 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 12756\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOUGEN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698752225586,"sku":"12756","price":249.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9960b4b2dd6abd57de547e47ca5cb2d8.jpg?v=1788367441","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hougen-12756-annular-cutter-1-3-4-in-2-in-depth-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
