Drill America ANC5-530-130 15/16" X 1" nACo Blue pneumatic accessory
A 15/16" annular cutter with nACo Nano-Composite coating for magnetic drill presses, increasing tool life up to 30% on steel and stainless
- nACo coating extends tool life up to 30% over standard HSS cutters
- Nano-Composite Blue finish resists wear and high heat during heavy drilling
- Cuts steel, cast iron, heated and stainless materials efficiently
- M2 high-speed steel removes only necessary material for fast, clean holes
- 3/4" Weldon shank fits most magnetic drill presses for secure mounting
Drill America ANC5-530-130 annular cutter
This nACo Nano-Composite coated cutter is built for magnetic drill presses only. The 15/16 inch by 1 inch M2 high-speed steel tool removes only the necessary material for fast, efficient hole making in steel, cast iron and stainless steels. A 3/4 inch Weldon shank fits most magnetic drill presses. It is not compatible with standard hand drills or drill presses.
nACo Nano-Composite coating benefit
The blue coating increases tool life up to 30 percent compared to traditional HSS annular cutters. Extra protection against wear and high heat helps the cutter handle difficult materials including heated steels. A pilot pin is included to aid alignment and slug ejection during the cut. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.
Magnetic drill press installation
Installation requires a magnetic drill press with a 3/4 inch Weldon shank receiver; the cutter will not work in a standard hand drill or drill press. The pilot pin must be inserted before use to ensure proper centering and slug removal. Using the tool on an incorrect machine is the most common error and can damage both the cutter and the workpiece.

Questions about this item
Will the nACo coating on the 15/16" X 1" annular cutter need to be replaced or can it be resharpened?
The nACo Nano-Composite coating cannot be reapplied once worn; the cutter is replaced when the coating no longer protects the high-speed steel edge.
What limits continuous cutting time with this 15/16" X 1" cutter in a magnetic drill press?
Heat buildup in the workpiece and the 3/4" Weldon shank interface is the first limit during sustained drilling in steel or stainless.
How much heat and vibration does the 15/16" X 1" nACo cutter produce during all-day magnetic drilling?
The coating reduces friction heat by up to 30% versus uncoated HSS, but the cutter still runs hot in stainless and cast iron.
