Steelmax HSS ( High Speed Steel) annular cutters utilize an M2Al (aluminum additive) formulation which increases cutter life due to better heat propagation characteristics and a less brittle character compared to other M2 formulations, such as those using a cobalt additive. HSS annular cutters are most cost-effective for mild steel applications and holes up to 2-3/8" in diameter in material up to 2" thick. HSS annular cutters can be re-sharpened to extend cutter life. All Steelmax annular cutters ship with a pilot pin installed at no extra charge.* Steelmax High Performance Cutting Fluid should be used with all annular cutters for optimal cutting performance and to extend cutter life. Our High Performance Cutting Fluid is a water-based cutting fluid that is bio-degradable and does not require time-consuming cleanup prior to welding or assembling parts.*6" HSS Cutters do not ship with pilot pin.

Bridge Reamers
Designed as a convenient and economical solution to align and enlarge existing holes in steel, ready for bolting. Reamers are used to align existing holes prior to bolt or rivet installation. The point is tapered to permit entry into overlapping holes, which is common in many manufacturing applications. Ideal for use in both a Portable Magnetic Drilling Machine, and an Impact Wrench with additional adapter.Hex Bridge Reamers
Designed for when the bolt does not fit the hole. Designed with a hexagon head, ready to fit hex socket for use with an impact wrench. Steelmax bridge reamers open up or align existing holes in steel when the bolt does not fit. See the sizes we offer below:
