How to Choose Annular Cutters

How to Choose Annular Cutters

How do you properly choose an Annular Cutter?

Annular cutters are hollow steel drill bits that cut out only the diameter of hole needed versus removing all material from inside the hole like traditional drill bits. The reduction in material being removed allows for the rapid drilling of heavy steel profiles, the ability to drill through steel much faster than regular steel drill bits, and for faster clean up.

3/4″ Shank Annular Cutters

With their unique centerfree design, Slugger annular cutters cut only the periphery of the hole, ejecting the remaining center as a slug. These cutters produce reamed quality, burr-free holes in one operation, eliminating costly pilot holes and step drilling. Slugger cutters reduce torque and horsepower requirements by only cutting the periphery of the hole using the proper tooth geometry.

Sheet Metal Cutters

Thin metal cutters produce infinitely more accurate holes than common bi-metal hole saws. Designed for use with hand held drilling equipment, these cutters drill up to three times faster than hole saws and have superior tool life. Centerfree design eliminates deflection and leaves smooth bore in work piece. Provided arbor system quickly installs to most hand drills, accepting a full range of cutters. Ideal for HVAC, electric and maintenance contractors.
