Offered for sale are TWO pairs of single angle horizontal milling cutters, one pair of 45 degrees included angle, and the other pair of 60 degrees included. These guys are in good shape and clearly show their size and brand name.Single angle cutters are different from double angle cutters in that they have a Left Hand or Right Hand orientation. Unlike double angle cutters which make a V-shaped groove, single angle cutters make a "half V-shape" groove. One side of the groove is formed from the cutter angle, the other side is "straight up". A Left Hand (LH) cutter forms its included angle on the left side of the groove, with the right side being the "straight up" side. A Right Hand (RH) cutter forms an oppositely formed groove.
I am offering them as pairs, with the 45 degree pair consisting of one LH and one RH cutter. Same for the 60 pair. These could be run singly or two could be run together (since many machinists prefer to run two cutters together, thus making parallel grooves in their workpieces with one pass). Each cutter will make a "half V-shaped" cut of whatever depth is set by the machinist, and the angle for these cutters 45 degrees or 60 degrees..
(I have others of these that I plan to list soon, as well as some smaller double angle cutters in 45, 60, and90 degrees.)
Cutter dimensions (all four cutters are the same size):
Diameter: 2 3/4"
Thickness: 1/2" (so this is the widest half-V you can make with this size cutters)
Arbor hole: 1"
Standard keyway: 1/4"
Material: HSS (High Speed Steel)
FWIW, if you don't have a horizontal milling machine, you can use cutters like this on a stub arbor in a vertical mill, like a Bridgeport. Then you would be cutting on the side of a vertical surface, rather than the top of a horizontal surface. FYI
