Value Collection C1100609 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C1100609 is a Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling semicircular keyseats into shafts and mating components. Built from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers reliable cutting performance in general machining applications. The cutter measures 1.125 inches in diameter with a 0.1875-inch cutting width and mounts on a 1/2-inch shank. With 12 straight teeth and a 2.1875-inch overall length, it conforms to ANSI Standard 609 and Old Standard Number 16. Machinists and tool and die professionals install this cutter on horizontal or vertical milling machines when producing keyseats for Woodruff key fits.

This keyseat cutter is suited for light to medium-duty shaft machining in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. It is used wherever a Woodruff key connection is specified on shafts in motors, pumps, gearboxes, and similar rotating equipment. The straight tooth configuration performs well in conventional milling passes on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. It is appropriate for skilled machinists and toolmakers working to ANSI keyseat dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Woodruff keyseat cutters are installed by machinists on milling machine arbors with the appropriate bore and key. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Secure the arbor nut to the manufacturer torque specification for the machine in use. Inspect the cutter for chipped teeth before each use and do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the workpiece material.
