Morse CTD72 Hole Cutter

The Morse CTD72 is a carbide-tipped hole cutter built for metalworking professionals who need precise holes in thick sheet metal and plate. Its 4-1/2 inch (114mm) diameter suits fabrication, maintenance and installation tasks where clean entry and exit matter. One cutter is supplied per box.

Capacity and headroom

Ground tooth geometry delivers fast, clean cuts through heavier gauge material while the stepped centre pilot drill reduces breakthrough shock. The shouldered body prevents the tool from passing completely through the workpiece and the grooved gullet evacuates chips away from the cut. An ejector spring helps remove the slug after drilling.

Practical limits of the interface

The cutter mounts in a standard power-drill chuck and relies on the machine’s speed and feed control; excessive force or misalignment will shorten carbide life. Replacement pilot drill CTDP (16700) and ejector spring CTDS (167017) are available separately when wear occurs. Buyers needing larger diameters or non-metallic materials should select a different tool.

Questions about this item

Will the Morse CTD72 hole cutter work with my existing CTDP 16700 pilot drill?

Yes, the CTDP 16700 pilot drill is listed as a replacement part for the CTD72 cutter, so your existing drill is compatible.

How can I confirm the Morse CTD72 is cutting correctly once installed?

The ground tooth profile should produce clean, fast cuts with chips directed up and away through the grooved gullet, and the ejector spring should push the slug out after each hole.

What comes in the box with the Morse CTD72 and what must I supply?

One CTD72 carbide-tipped cutter is included; the CTDP 16700 pilot drill and CTDS 167017 ejector spring are replacement parts you may need to purchase separately if not already owned.
