RUKO Annular Cutter D16 mm — HSS core drill with 55 mm cutting depth and Weldon shank

The RUKO Annular Cutter D16 mm is a high‑performance HSS core drill designed for efficient holemaking in structural steel, cast iron and non‑ferrous metals on magnetic drills and drilling machines

• RUKO annular cutter D16 mm, HSS
• 55 mm effective cutting depth
• Weldon shank 19.05 mm (3/4") for secure mounting
• Suitable for steel, cast iron and non‑ferrous metals

Faster throughput through high‑performance cutting

The HSS construction delivers a reliable balance of toughness and edge retention, enabling continuous production runs with predictable tool life. The 16 mm bore diameter combined with a 55 mm cutting depth allows for efficient creation of medium‑sized holes without the need for multiple pilot operations. The cutter’s geometry, with five cutting edges, promotes smooth cutting and lowers the required spindle load, supporting shorter cycle times and higher overall productivity in metalworking environments.

Secure mounting and quick changeover for shop efficiency

A Weldon shank 19.05 mm (3/4") provides positive clamping in standard Weldon holders, reducing slippage during heavy cuts and simplifying tool changes on magnetic base drills and dedicated drilling rigs. The tool’s 88 mm overall length balances accessibility and vibration control, allowing straightforward positioning while maintaining rigidity. This mechanical simplicity reduces set‑up time and supports repeatable hole quality across batches, which is particularly valuable in jobbing shops and production cells.

Broad material compatibility and dependable workshop performance

Manufactured for use on a wide range of materials, the cutter is suitable for steel, cast iron and non‑ferrous metals, making it a versatile option for maintenance, fabrication and production tasks. The core‑drilling principle removes a solid slug rather than machining the entire hole, which minimises power draw and often produces a cleaner hole wall than twist drilling. Supplied as a single item per pack, the cutter pairs well with standard pilot systems and Weldon holders for immediate integration into existing workflows, backed by the proven quality associated with the RUKO name.
