Value Collection C1200809 Woodruff Keyseat Cutter Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C1200809 is a Woodruff keyseat cutter designed for milling semicircular keyseats into shafts and mating components in precision machining applications. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it features a staggered tooth configuration that reduces cutting forces and helps evacuate chips during the cut. The cutter measures 1.125 inches in cutting diameter with a 0.25-inch cutting width and mounts via a 1/2-inch shank. Overall length is 2.25 inches. With 12 teeth and conformance to ANSI Standard 809 (Old Standard 18), this cutter delivers consistent, repeatable keyseat geometry in steel, aluminum, and other common workpiece materials.

This cutter is suited for manual mills and CNC machining centers where shaft keyseats are required during component assembly, repair work, or custom fabrication. Machinists working in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments will find this cutter appropriate for applications requiring ANSI 809-compliant keyseat profiles. It is a single-piece item with a minimum order quantity of one, making it practical for both low-volume repair work and recurring production runs.

Installation Notes

This cutter is installed and operated by qualified machinists on milling equipment. Secure the 1/2-inch shank in a properly sized collet or arbor and confirm runout before cutting. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the cutter. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines for speeds and feeds appropriate to the workpiece material.
