- Suitable for spot-facing shallow holes up to 1/8" depth
- Designed for counterboring previously formed holes
- California Proposition 65 chemical warning applies to this product
9/16" Counterbore Pilot Set
These pilots fit 9/16 inch counterbore cutters with a 1/4 inch shank. They are designed for machinists and maintenance technicians who need to enlarge existing holes for bolt heads or nuts. The two-piece construction allows the pilot to be swapped without replacing the entire tool.
Interchangeable Pilot Design
The pilot separates from the cutter body so one cutter can serve multiple hole diameters. This reduces tool inventory and change-over time when a job requires several counterbore sizes. The supplier notes that the interchangeable pilot provides flexibility in the use of the tool.
Shallow Spot-Facing And Deep Counterboring
The accessory handles both spot-facing depths of 1/8 inch or less and deeper counterboring operations. It is not suited for holes smaller than the pilot diameter or for materials that require specialised coating not mentioned in the data. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
Will the interchangeable pilot need replacement after heavy counterboring use?
The pilot is designed as a replaceable component in the two-piece counterbore system, allowing it to be swapped when wear affects hole alignment or cut quality.
What limits continuous use of the 9/16 inch counterbore with this pilot?
Heat buildup in the cutter and pilot interface during prolonged cutting cycles is the primary limit, requiring cooling pauses to maintain dimensional accuracy.
How much heat does the pilot generate during all-day counterboring operations?
The pilot conducts cutting heat from the workpiece; extended runs will raise its temperature enough to require periodic rest intervals for operator safety and tool life.
