1/2" Annular HSS Cutter for Magnetic Drills
The Evolution Power Tools CC500L is a high-speed steel annular cutter with a 1/2 inch diameter and 2 inch cutting depth. It is designed for use with magnetic drilling machines to create precise holes in steel and other ferrous metals. Professional fabricators and maintenance technicians who need clean, accurate holes in structural steel will find this cutter suitable for workshop and on-site applications.
Replaces twist drills for faster hole-making
Unlike conventional twist drills that remove all material within the hole diameter, this annular cutter cuts only the periphery to produce a solid slug. The design reduces the amount of material removed, lowering power consumption and cutting time while delivering a reamed, burr-free finish. The upgrade is worth it when drilling multiple holes in thick plate where twist drills wander, overheat or leave rough edges that require secondary reaming.
Fits standard magnetic drill arbors with pilot pin
Installation requires inserting the cutter into the magnetic drill arbor and securing the included pilot pin, which centres the cutter and ejects the slug after the cut. Common issues include using the cutter without adequate coolant, which accelerates wear on the high-speed steel teeth, and applying excessive feed pressure that can snap the pilot pin or damage the cutter walls. Always ensure the magnetic base is secure on clean, flat steel before starting the cut.

Questions about this item
What magnetic drill does the CC500L annular cutter fit?
The CC500L annular cutter is designed for use with magnetic drills that accept standard annular cutter shanks.
How do you install the pilot pin for the CC500L cutter, and what step is often missed?
Insert the pilot pin into the cutter's centre hole before mounting the cutter in the drill chuck; the step often missed is ensuring the pin seats fully so it can eject the slug.
When will the HSS cutting edges on the CC500L need replacement?
Replace the cutter when the teeth become dull, chipped, or when cutting performance drops noticeably; HSS cutters can be resharpened several times before full replacement.
