With a 2-inch counterbore diameter and a 1-1\/2-inch straight shank, this tool seats securely in compatible toolholders on manual mills and CNC machining centers alike. The 5-flute geometry distributes cutting load evenly, reducing chatter and improving surface finish at the counterbore seat. An 8-3\/8-inch overall length provides clearance for deeper workpiece access, while the 5-7\/8-inch shank length maximizes grip in the spindle. The bright, uncoated finish is standard for cobalt tooling used across general-purpose and aerospace-adjacent machining applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis counterbore is suited for machinists and toolroom operators working in job shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light production environments. It is used to create flat-bottomed recesses that accept socket head cap screws, dowel-pin shoulders, and similar fastener geometries. The interchangeable pilot design allows the operator to swap pilots to match different clearance hole sizes without replacing the body, making it a cost-effective option for shops cutting a range of bolt patterns. A licensed machinist or experienced toolroom technician typically selects and installs this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch counterbore diameter for large-diameter recess cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt steel construction provides heat and wear resistance in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute design reduces cutting forces and improves seat finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2-inch straight shank for secure, concentric spindle holding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterchangeable pilot accepts 1\/2-inch pilot shank diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — compatible with most cutting fluids without coating interference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction, standard for conventional and climb milling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with interchangeable pilots having a 1\/2-inch pilot shank diameter.

Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Ensure the straight shank is fully seated and the set screw is properly tightened before initiating a cut. Verify pilot fit and concentricity before running at full feed to avoid pilot damage or counterbore runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCounterbore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePilot Shank Diameter Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright \/ Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAircraft Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GH8817009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696631054642,"sku":"GH8817009","price":789.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cf29e11c91ff21f339e4e089161175d1.jpg?v=1788344656","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-gh8817009-counterbore-2in-5-flute-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
