  • nACo Nano-Composite coating extends tool life by up to 30%
  • Cuts difficult materials including steel, cast iron and stainless steels
  • nACo Nano Coating provides extra protection against wear and high heat
  • M2 High Speed Steel removes only necessary material for efficient hole making
  • 3/4" Weldon shank fits most magnetic drill presses

Purpose and fit

The Drill America ANC5-530-257 is an nACo blue coated annular cutter designed for magnetic drill presses only. Its 3/4 inch Weldon shank fits most mag drills and the included pilot pin aligns the cut. The cutter removes only the necessary material for fast, efficient hole making in steel, cast iron, heated and stainless steels.

Who this suits and who it does not

This cutter suits operators who need longer tool life and heat resistance when cutting difficult metals with a magnetic drill press. It is not for users who only have a standard hand drill or conventional drill press, as the Weldon shank and cutting geometry require a mag drill. Buyers seeking a cutter for non-ferrous materials or for hand-held drilling should look at something else.

Behaviour under sustained load

The nACo nano-composite coating increases tool life up to 30 percent compared to traditional HSS annular cutters by protecting against wear and high heat. M2 high speed steel maintains cutting performance during extended cuts in tough alloys. The design reduces the volume of material removed, lowering the load on the machine and the cutter during continuous operation.

Questions about this item

What magnetic drill press do I need for the 3/4" Weldon shank on this cutter?

The 3/4" Weldon shank fits most magnetic drill presses, also called mag drills, so any press with that shank size will accept the cutter.

Can I keep using my standard hand drill or drill press with this annular cutter?

No, the cutter is for use with a magnetic drill press only and must not be used with a standard hand drill or drill press.

How will I know the nACo Nano-Composite coating is performing as intended after I start cutting?

The coating is designed to increase tool life up to 30% compared to traditional HSS annular cutters and provides extra protection against wear and high heat during cutting.
