Drill America ANC5-530-154 annular cutter
The Drill America ANC5-530-154 is a 1-7/16 inch annular cutter built for magnetic drill presses. Its nACo Nano-Composite Blue coating extends tool life by up to 30 percent over standard high-speed steel cutters. The M2 high-speed steel construction cuts only the necessary material for fast, efficient hole making. It is designed for professionals cutting steel, cast iron, and stainless steel.
Thermals and power in magnetic drilling
The nACo Nano Coating provides extra protection against high heat and tool wear during operation. Efficient cutting geometry reduces friction and heat buildup in difficult materials. The cutter runs on the magnetic drill press power source with no additional electrical draw. Low vibration from the optimized tooth design contributes to quieter operation on the job site.
Pilot pin and coating benefits
A pilot pin is included to ensure accurate hole alignment and slug ejection. The 3/4 inch Weldon shank fits most magnetic drill presses for quick tool changes. The blue nACo coating actively resists wear when cutting heated or hardened steels. This cutter is not compatible with standard hand drills or conventional drill presses.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3/4" Weldon shank on my magnetic drill press, and what step is often missed?
Insert the shank fully into the arbor, then tighten both set screws evenly; the step most often missed is seating the included pilot pin so the cutter centres correctly.
What maintenance or replacement will this nACo coated annular cutter need over time?
The pilot pin wears first and should be replaced when it no longer centres the cut; the nACo coating itself lasts up to 30% longer than uncoated HSS before the cutter requires resharpening or replacement.
What limit appears first during sustained cutting in stainless steel?
Heat buildup at the cutting edges becomes the limiting factor; the nACo Nano-Composite coating delays this, but continuous heavy feed without coolant will still overheat the M2 high-speed steel body.
