Metal Cutting Tools for Machining and Shaping Parts
Metal cutting tools are essential for any construction site. From the early stages of a project to final installation, metal cutters can be used to create small pieces like nuts and bolts or more complex shapes like window panels.
Machine tool cutters are broken down into three types: single point, multi-point, and abrasive. Single point cutting tools do just that. There is a single point of contact such as when a bandsaw cuts into a part.
A multi-point cutting tool uses multiple surfaces to make a cut. When you examine a drill bit or a reamer, for instance, you can actually see that the spiral has multiple points, or flutes. When turned in a machine, the cutting tool will contact the part in many different points.
Abrasive cutting tools cut with the friction of high-speed spinning, such as with a bench grinder. As the wheel rubs against the part, the material gets worn away.
Hand-Held Metal Cutting Tools
When it comes to cutting metal, there are a number of tools that you can use. To maximize your efficiency when looking for the perfect tool for your project, bench work cutting tools can be further organized by categories based on application and design.
Counterbores and Countersinks
You can expand the opening of a hole with our counterbores and our countersinks. They produce flat-bottom and conical cavities, respectively, to permit a screw to fit flush in the hole.
Cutters and Drills
With our metal cutters, you can cut everything from rebar to gaskets to tubing. Alternatively, if you need to drill, you can find grinding attachments, drill indexes, and quick-change drivers.
Milling Cutters
Our milling cutters are efficient, easy to use, and durable. In fact, we’ve built our reputation as industry leaders by offering customers only the most reliable milling cutter tools for sale.
Saws and Blades
If you need a more conventional cutting tool, this is the category you’re looking for. From precision knife pens and utility knives to high-tension hacksaws and jeweler’s saw blades, we have what you need in saws and blades.
