Morse CTD44 Carbide Hole Cutter

The Morse CTD44 is a carbide-tipped hole cutter with a 70mm cutting diameter built for precision holes in thicker sheet metal and plate. Its ground tooth profile delivers clean, fast cuts while the stepped centre pilot drill reduces breakthrough impact. A shouldered body prevents pass-through and a grooved gullet directs chips away from the cut. An ejector spring assists with slug removal. One cutter is supplied per box.

Compatibility Check Before Ordering

Verify that your power tool accepts the cutter’s shank and that the workpiece thickness suits the shouldered body design. Confirm the pilot drill (part 16700) and ejector spring (part 167017) match your existing Morse accessories or order replacements at the same time. Ensure the machine’s speed range is appropriate for carbide tooling in metal.

Build Integration And Workflow

The cutter fits directly into a compatible drill or magnetic base machine and frees you from changing bits mid-job thanks to the integrated ejector spring. Chips are expelled upward by the grooved gullet, keeping the cut line clear. Replacement pilot drills and springs are available under Morse part numbers 16700 and 167017, so downtime stays minimal during high-volume plate work.

Questions about this item

Does the Morse CTD44 package include the pilot drill and ejector spring, or must I order them separately?

The cutter ships with a pilot drill and ejector spring already fitted. Replacement pilot drill CTDP (16700) and replacement spring CTDS (167017) are sold separately when the originals wear out.

How do I decide between the Morse CTD44 and other diameters in the same range?

Choose the CTD44 when you need a 2-3/4 in (70 mm) hole; each model in the series is identified by its cut diameter, so match the cutter to the exact hole size the job requires.

What does the 2-3/4 in (70 mm) diameter mean when the cutter is mounted in a magnetic drill?

It is the finished hole size the tool produces in thick sheet metal or plate; the shouldered body stops the cutter from passing through, and the ejector spring pushes the slug clear after the cut.
