Value Collection E1419016 Solid Pilot Counterbore 26mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION E1419016 is a solid pilot counterbore designed for producing clean, flat-bottomed recesses in metalworking and machining applications. Built from cobalt steel, this tool handles harder workpiece materials where standard high-speed steel cutters wear prematurely. It features a 26 mm counterbore diameter, a 17 mm pilot diameter, and a 3-flute cutting geometry that promotes chip clearance and smooth surface finish. The 2MT Morse taper shank seats directly into compatible drill press or milling machine spindles without an additional chuck. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this type of counterbore.

This counterbore is suited for recessing socket head cap screws with a 16 mm fastener size compatibility in forward cutting direction operations. Typical applications include fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and production machining environments where precise bolt-head seating is required. The 228.6 mm overall length provides working clearance for most standard drill press setups. It is equally at home in job-shop and production settings handling steel, stainless, cast iron, and similarly tough alloys where cobalt steel tooling is specified.

Key Features

• Cobalt steel construction for extended tool life in harder workpiece materials
• 26 mm counterbore diameter sized for 16 mm fastener compatibility
• 17 mm solid pilot for positive alignment and accurate recess positioning
• 3-flute geometry promotes chip evacuation and consistent surface finish
• 2MT Morse taper shank for direct spindle mounting without a separate chuck
• 228.6 mm overall length provides clearance for standard drill press and mill setups
• Forward cutting direction for conventional machining operations

Compatibility

Designed for use with drill presses, milling machines, and other spindles equipped with a Number 2 Morse taper (2MT) socket. Sized to recess 16 mm socket head cap screws per the 26 mm counterbore and 17 mm pilot dimensions.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and at rest before seating or removing the Morse taper shank. Clean the taper bore and shank surfaces before insertion to ensure proper seating and accurate alignment. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain surface finish quality.
