Carbide Tipped Hole Cutter
The Drill America CTH4562 is a carbide tipped hole cutter built for tradespeople who need to bore large diameter holes in metal without oversized drill bits or chucks. It suits fabrication shops, maintenance crews and metalworkers cutting stainless steel, cast iron, sheet metal, copper, high density resin and metal plates.
Thermals noise and power draw
The cutter runs on the host drill or magnetic base, so heat, noise and power draw follow that machine rather than the accessory itself. Carbide teeth reduce friction compared with standard steel, helping the tool stay cooler during repeated cuts in tough alloys.
Sustained load behaviour
Premium high speed steel body and carbide tips are rated for over 300 holes in stainless steel plate before performance drops. An auto ejecting slug clears the kerf each cycle, maintaining steady feed rates during long production runs without manual intervention.

Questions about this item
How do I install the pilot drill and hex key into the CTH4562 cutter, and what step is often missed?
Insert the pilot drill into the cutter shank and tighten the set screw firmly with the hex key; the step often missed is fully seating the pilot drill before locking it.
What maintenance or replacement will the carbide tipped hole cutter need after extended use?
The carbide teeth cannot be resharpened; replace the entire cutter when cutting performance drops or tooth damage appears.
What limit appears first when cutting stainless steel continuously with this 4-9/16 inch cutter?
The auto-ejecting slug mechanism is rated for over 300 holes in stainless steel plate before slug ejection may become unreliable.
