Value Collection 317-0248 Convex Radius Cutter Hss Arbor

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 317-0248 is a convex radius cutter designed for milling radius profiles on workpieces using a horizontal or arbor-type milling machine. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright finish, this form-relieved cutter produces a consistent 3/16-inch convex radius in a single pass. It measures 2-1/4 inches in diameter, carries 12 teeth, and mounts via a standard arbor connection. The form-relieved tooth geometry allows the cutter to be resharpened on the face without altering the profile, extending tool life. This cutter is suited for machinists and toolmakers working in job shops, maintenance facilities, and general metalworking operations.

This cutter is used in horizontal milling setups where a precise convex radius form must be machined into steel, aluminum, or similar materials. It is appropriate for applications such as die work, fixture machining, and profile milling where a repeatable 3/16-inch radius is required. The arbor-mount connection is compatible with standard milling machine arbors. Installation is straightforward for any machinist familiar with horizontal milling arbor setups.

Key Features

• 3/16-inch convex radius profile for consistent form milling in a single pass
• 2-1/4-inch cutter diameter with 12 teeth for balanced feed and finish
• High speed steel construction provides good wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials
• Form-relieved relief allows face sharpening without changing the cutter profile
• Bright finish reduces surface friction during cutting
• Standard arbor connection fits common horizontal milling machine arbors

Compatibility

Designed as a standard arbor-mount convex radius cutter for use on horizontal milling machines accepting arbor-style tooling of the appropriate bore size.

Installation Notes

This cutter is installed by a machinist on a horizontal milling machine arbor. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Ensure the arbor bore, key, and nut are clean and properly torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification before operation. Eye protection and appropriate guarding must be in place before initiating any cut.
