Built from high speed steel, this tool produces clean, flat-bottomed counterbored recesses for socket head fasteners and similar hardware. The 31\/32 inch cutting diameter pairs with a 21\/32 inch standard pilot diameter to guide the tool accurately into a pre-drilled hole. The 3-flute geometry balances chip evacuation with cutting stability. The No. 3 Morse Taper shank mounts directly into compatible drill presses, milling machines, and machining centers equipped with a 3MT spindle or sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis counterbore is suited for job shop, maintenance, and production environments where consistent counterbore depth and diameter are required for cap screw or socket head bolt installations. It is appropriate for use in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar machinable materials. Forward cutting direction makes it a straightforward fit for standard right-hand spindle machines. The 5\/8 inch fastener size compatibility means it is commonly used to seat 5\/8 inch socket head cap screws flush or below a workpiece surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e31\/32 inch counterbore diameter for 5\/8 inch fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21\/32 inch standard pilot diameter for accurate hole alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across a range of machinable materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 3 Morse Taper shank for secure mounting in 3MT spindles and sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute design balances chip clearing with cutting stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForward cutting direction compatible with standard right-hand spindle equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drill presses, milling machines, and machining centers fitted with a No. 3 Morse Taper spindle or adapter sleeve.

Ensure the pilot diameter matches the pre-drilled through-hole to prevent tool wander. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain surface finish quality. Power down and lock out the machine spindle completely before changing or inspecting the tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCounterbore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePilot Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Size Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Morse Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3MT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forward\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\/Oversize Pilot\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAircraft Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: GH8861403\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693129040178,"sku":"GH8861403","price":138.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cd878bed941d1f61aac441c568fc16be.jpg?v=1788307687","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-gh8861403-solid-pilot-counterbore-3mt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
