Value Collection 317-0529 Convex Radius Cutter Hss 12T

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 317-0529 is a convex radius milling cutter designed for form milling operations on metalworking machines. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright finish, this cutter profiles a 13/32-inch convex radius on workpiece surfaces in a single pass. It features 12 teeth on a 3-1/4-inch diameter body and mounts via a standard arbor connection with a 1-inch arbor hole. The form-relieved relief style maintains accurate cutting geometry across the full tooth profile, making it well-suited for producing consistent, repeatable radius contours in production and job-shop environments. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users.

This cutter is used in horizontal milling machine setups where a convex radius profile must be cut into ferrous or non-ferrous stock. It is appropriate for both production runs and custom fabrication work requiring precise form profiles. The 12-tooth count balances chip clearance with surface finish quality, making it practical across a range of feed rates and workpiece materials. It is sold individually and is ready to mount on any compatible arbor-style milling machine spindle that accepts a 1-inch arbor hole.

Key Features

• 13/32-inch convex radius profile for consistent form milling in a single pass
• High speed steel construction for durability across a wide range of materials
• Form-relieved relief style preserves accurate tooth geometry during sharpening
• Bright finish reduces friction and aids chip evacuation
• 12 teeth on a 3-1/4-inch diameter body for a balance of finish and chip clearance
• 1-inch arbor hole fits standard horizontal milling machine arbors

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard horizontal milling machine arbors accepting a 1-inch arbor hole diameter. Suitable for arbor-driven milling setups in machine shops and tool rooms.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists. Power down and lock out the milling machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Secure the cutter firmly on the arbor with the appropriate spacers, collars, and arbor nut before engaging the spindle. Inspect the cutter teeth for chips or damage before each use, and never exceed the recommended speed range for HSS tooling in the material being machined.
