Value Collection 317-0362 Convex Radius Cutter Hss 12T

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 317-0362 is a high speed steel convex radius milling cutter designed for precision form milling operations on metalworking mills and manual machining centers. It produces a consistent convex radius profile in a single pass, eliminating the need for complex multi-step setups. The cutter features a 9/32 inch radius, a 2-3/4 inch outer diameter, and 12 teeth arranged to deliver smooth chip evacuation and a clean surface finish. The bright finish on the HSS body reduces friction during cutting. This cutter is intended for machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with steel, aluminum, and similar machinable materials.

This convex radius cutter is suited for light to medium-duty form milling on manual knee mills, horizontal mills, and CNC milling machines when used in the appropriate arbor setup. It is commonly used in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments where a repeatable convex profile is required on workpieces. The arbor connection style means it mounts directly to a standard milling arbor, making it a straightforward drop-in for existing setups.

Key Features

• 9/32 inch convex radius for consistent form milling in a single pass
• 2-3/4 inch outer diameter with 12 teeth for smooth cutting action
• High speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials
• Form relieved relief geometry maintains the radius profile through multiple resharpenings
• Bright finish reduces surface friction and aids chip flow
• Arbor connection mounts to standard milling arbors without additional adapters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit cutter for standard milling arbor setups used in horizontal and universal milling machine configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with milling arbor assembly procedures. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Ensure the arbor, spacers, and arbor nut are in good condition and properly torqued according to the machine manufacturer specifications. Verify cutter runout with a dial indicator before beginning any cut.
