Pilot pins are essential for the use

of annular cutters, as they provide

the following practical uses: 

 

• Centration of cutter

• Control of oil flow

• Slug ejection

As plain as a pilot pin may look,
all of these uses require high-

precision and extremely low

tolerances – just to make sure

the centre is exactly the centre,

oil flow starts and stops when

you need it to, and the slug does

not get stuck inside the cutter.

 

We offer a wide range of pilot

pins that match the lengths,

diameters and characteristics of

our various annular cutters with

exactly the required precision to

enhance your drilling job in the

best way possible.

Pilot Pin Features

Precise positioning

• Whilst having a perfect fit

the Euroboor pilot pin is your

guidance to centre the cutter.

Oil flow regulation

• In standstill position with the cutter above the workpiece, the pilot pin prevents the oil from flowing.

• When moving down the cutter with the pilot pin onto the workpiece to commence drilling, the pilot pin is pushed up into the arbor and permits the oil to flow into the cutter for direct cooling and lubricating.
