Value Collection CD60024 Solid Pilot Counterbore 19/32 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CD60024 is a solid pilot counterbore designed for precision counterboring operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from cobalt steel with a bright uncoated finish, this tool accepts a straight-cylindrical shank and is sized at 19/32 inches cutting diameter with a 13/32 inch pilot diameter. The 1/2 inch shank diameter and 4.5 inch overall length make it compatible with standard drill press and milling machine setups. With 3 flutes and a forward cutting direction, it produces clean, accurate counterbore seats for socket-head cap screws. This tool is typically installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals.

This counterbore is specifically sized for 3/8 inch socket-head cap screws, making it a practical choice for job shops, maintenance departments, and production machining environments where consistent counterbore depth and diameter are required. It suits applications in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials where cobalt steel tooling is preferred for its heat and wear resistance. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard tool holders or drill chucks used in manual or CNC setups.

Key Features

Compatibility

Sized for 3/8 inch socket-head cap screws. Designed as a direct-fit solid pilot counterbore for use in drill press, milling machine, or CNC setups accepting a 1/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified machinist. Secure the 1/2 inch shank firmly in a properly rated chuck or tool holder before use. Always use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being machined to extend tool life and maintain finish quality. Inspect the pilot and cutting edges for wear or damage before each use and replace the tool if chipping or edge degradation is observed.
