Product identity and purpose
The Hougen 18124 Copperhead annular cutter is a carbide-tipped pneumatic accessory built for fast, accurate hole-making in structural steel and plate. It suits metalworkers, fabricators and maintenance crews who need clean bores without the thrust of a twist drill.
Build integration and workflow
The cutter mounts in a compatible magnetic-base drill or pneumatic drill press with a 3/4 in. shank, so the machine must accept that shank size and deliver the required feed force. Its annular geometry removes only the hole perimeter, leaving a solid slug and reducing the power and time each hole demands.
Thermals noise and power in use
Carbide tips resist heat buildup during extended cutting, helping the tool maintain edge life in tough alloys. The design runs with the noise level of the host drill and draws only the air or electric power that the driving machine supplies, adding no extra thermal load to the workshop.

Questions about this item
How deep can the 18124 Copperhead carbide tip annular cutter cut before it hits its limit?
The cutter is rated for a 1 in. depth of cut, which is the maximum material thickness it can remove in a single pass.
How much heat does the carbide tip generate during extended drilling sessions?
Carbide tips run cooler than high-speed steel because they resist wear, but sustained use will still produce noticeable heat at the cutting zone.
What shank style must my magnetic drill press have to accept this 18124 annular cutter?
The cutter uses a standard 3/4 in. Weldon shank, so your mag drill must accept that shank diameter directly or with the correct adapter.
