Dp12 PA14-1/2 Bore22 No. 1-8 Involute Gear Cutter DP Series Milling

Description

Product Overview

The Dp12 PA14-1/2 Bore22 No. 1-8 Involute Gear Cutter belongs to the DP series of high‑precision milling accessories designed for demanding industrial environments. Constructed from hardened alloy steel, the cutter offers exceptional rigidity and wear resistance, ensuring consistent performance even under heavy loads. Its 1/2‑inch bore size and 22 mm maximum bore capacity make it suitable for a wide range of gear sizes, while the PA14‑1/2 designation indicates a precise tooth profile that matches standard involute gear specifications. The cutter weighs just 2.65 lb, providing a balance between durability and ease of handling, which reduces operator fatigue during extended machining sessions. Engineered by Shang Hai, a reputable manufacturer known for stringent quality controls, each unit undergoes thorough testing to verify dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and cutting efficiency. The product’s compact form factor allows seamless integration into existing arbor‑type milling setups, and its compatibility with standard CNC and manual milling machines ensures versatile application across various production lines.

Usage

This involute gear cutter is intended for precision gear manufacturing, repair, and prototyping in sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery. It excels in creating accurate tooth profiles on shafts, gear blanks, and custom components where tight tolerances are critical. Operators can employ the cutter in both CNC‑controlled and manually operated milling stations, adjusting feed rates and spindle speeds to match material hardness—whether machining steel, alloy, or high‑performance plastics. The lightweight design facilitates quick tool changes, minimizing downtime during batch production. Recommended cutting parameters include a spindle speed of 2,500–4,000 rpm and a feed rate of 0.02–0.05 in/rev for optimal surface finish. The cutter’s geometry reduces chip buildup, allowing smoother material removal and extending tool life. It is particularly effective for producing gears with bore diameters up to 22 mm, making it a go‑to solution for small‑to‑medium gear sets used in precision drives, gearboxes, and instrumentation.
