Morse CTD56 89 mm Hole Cutter

The Morse CTD56 is a carbide-tipped hole cutter with a 3-1/2 inch (89 mm) saw diameter built for precision holes in thicker sheet metal and plate. Its ground tooth profile produces clean, fast cuts while the step centre pilot drill reduces breakthrough impact. A shouldered cutter body prevents pass-through and an ejector spring aids slug removal. One cutter is supplied per box.

Thermals noise and power draw

The cutter generates heat only at the cutting interface during normal use with no motor or fan of its own. Noise is limited to the sound of the host drill and chip evacuation through the grooved gullet. Power draw depends entirely on the drill or magnetic base driving the tool.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous cutting the ground teeth maintain their edge and the grooved gullet keeps directing chips away from the cut. The step centre pilot drill continues to limit breakthrough shock on each hole while the ejector spring eases repeated slug removal. Replacement pilot drill CTDP 16700 and ejector spring CTDS 167017 are available for extended service.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Morse CTD56 hole cutter and what step is often missed?

Chuck the 3-1/2in cutter securely, align the step center pilot drill with your marked centre point, and apply steady pressure; the step pilot reduces breakthrough impact, but users often forget to seat the shouldered body flush so the depth stop engages.

Which replacement parts will the Morse CTD56 need over time?

The CTDP 16700 pilot drill and CTDS 167017 ejector spring are the serviceable items; replace the pilot when the tip dulls and the spring when slug ejection becomes unreliable.

What limits the Morse CTD56 during sustained cutting in thick plate?

The grooved gullet clears chips upward, but continuous heavy feed packs the gullets faster than they evacuate, so chip buildup becomes the first bottleneck on long cuts.
