Cleveland C46431 Port Tool .437" dia. 4.313" L
A high-speed steel counterbore with a 0.437 inch diameter and 4.313 inch length for interchangeable pilots
- High-speed steel construction resists wear during repeated counterboring
- .437 inch diameter matches standard pilot dimensions for precise alignment
- 313 inch overall length provides reach in deep cavities
- Bright finish reduces friction and eases chip evacuation
- Counterbore design accepts interchangeable pilots for versatile hole preparation
Precision Port Tool for Machinists
The Cleveland C46431 is a counterbore tool designed for machinists and maintenance technicians who need to create precise recesses for interchangeable pilots. It suits workshops handling general fabrication or repair tasks where accurate hole preparation is required before pilot installation.
High-Speed Steel Limits in Hard Materials
The high-speed steel construction provides good wear resistance for standard steel and cast iron workpieces. Cutting performance drops significantly in hardened alloys or abrasive composites, so operators should restrict use to conventional ferrous metals to maintain edge life and dimensional accuracy.
Bright Finish and Shank Implications
The bright finish offers no corrosion protection, so the tool must be wiped and oiled after each use to prevent surface rust. The standard shank fits common drill presses and milling machines, but the 4.313 inch overall length limits access in deep cavities or tightly fixtured setups.
