Cutting Tools Outlet Guides

Magnetic holding power depends on clean contact, adequate steel thickness, a flat base and a sound magnet system.

Slug retention can come from a bent pilot, insufficient ejection space, chips packed in the cut or cutter misalignment.

A dull cutter, incorrect shank, insufficient lubricant, poor magnet contact or wrong speed can stop an annular cutter from cutting efficiently.

Chip packing depends on hole type, tap geometry, material, depth and lubrication.

Slipping can be caused by the wrong shank, loose set screws, contamination or a worn arbor.

Stainless steel can work harden when the tool rubs, dwells or loses its edge.

Taps follow the drilled hole, so poor entry alignment or workholding creates a crooked thread.

A rough hole may come from a dull edge, vibration, poor chip evacuation or an unsuitable geometry.

Jamming can result from misalignment, oversized rebar, a damaged cutter or packed debris.

The wrong shank, worn edge, shallow angle or unsuitable hammer setting can reduce scraping performance.

Lathe chatter is affected by tool height, overhang, workholding, geometry and cutting conditions.

Tooth breakage can result from impact, wrong blade application, loose workholding or excessive feed.
