Product overview
Annular Cutter Pilot Pins
Pilot pins support centering, coolant guidance and slug ejection in a configured annular cutting system. The catalog confirms flat, grooved and sleeve-type form descriptions, but it does not publish a dimensional or compatibility matrix.
Provide cutter family, diameter, cutting depth and shank.
Part number and cutter match confirmed with each quotation
Buyer selection question
Match the pilot pin to the exact cutter
Send cutter family, diameter, D.O.C., shank, holder, coolant arrangement and any existing pin dimensions or part number.
Key features and buyer value
Pilot pins support centering, coolant guidance and slug ejection in a configured annular cutting system. The catalog confirms flat, grooved and sleeve-type form descriptions, but it does not publish a dimensional or compatibility matrix.
System-function selection
Centering, coolant flow and slug ejection must be considered with the cutter and holder.
No universal-fit assumption
The correct pin depends on cutter family, diameter, depth and the approved accessory record.
Model, size and configuration selection
Send cutter family, diameter, D.O.C., shank, holder, coolant arrangement and any existing pin dimensions or part number.
Identify the cutter
Provide cutter family, diameter, cutting depth and shank.
Confirm the pin dimensions
Use an approved part record for diameter, total length, tip and groove or sleeve geometry.
Review operation
Check centering, coolant path, slug ejection and available machine stroke.
Technical specifications
Use these specifications together with the cutter, machine and accessory configuration stated in your inquiry.
| Confirmed forms | Flat, grooved and sleeve type |
|---|---|
| System roles | Centering, coolant guidance, slug ejection |
| Part numbers | Confirmed with the matched cutter record |
| Diameter and length | Confirmed for the matched cutter and cutting-depth series |
| Material / hardness | Confirmed with the selected pilot-pin specification |
| Compatibility matrix | Matching confirmed for the selected cutter system |
Pilot Pin Selection by Annular Cutter Cutting Depth
Use the cutter series as the first selection gate. Exact pilot-pin diameter, bore fit and usable length still require an approved item record.
| Annular Cutter Cutting Depth | Cutter Diameter Range | Pilot Pin Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| 30 mm | 12–65 mm | Match cutter diameter, bore and usable pin length |
| 55 mm | 12–65 mm | Use a pilot pin designed for the 55 mm series |
| 75 mm | 18–50 mm | Use a compatible long-series pilot pin |
| 100 mm | 18–50 mm | Use a compatible extra-long pilot pin |
This table defines the matching requirement, not an exact pilot-pin length or universal part number.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What functions does an annular cutter pilot pin perform?
The confirmed system roles are centering, coolant guidance and slug ejection. The selected pin must support the actual cutter and holder path.
How is pilot-pin length related to cutting depth?
The 30, 55, 75 and 100 mm cutter series require matching pin geometry and usable length; the selection table does not create one universal length.
Are flat, grooved and sleeve-type pins interchangeable?
No. These are documented form families, not complete ordering identities. Diameter, tip, groove or sleeve geometry and holder fit must match.
What should be sent for pilot-pin matching?
Send cutter family, diameter, D.O.C., shank, holder, coolant arrangement and any existing pin dimensions or part number.
Can one pilot pin be used across HSS and TCT cutters?
Only when the cutter bore, diameter/depth series, holder, coolant path and approved part record all match; material family alone does not prove compatibility.
How is the matching pilot pin confirmed?
Send the cutter family, diameter, cutting depth, holder and any existing pin dimensions or part number; the quotation will state the matched pilot-pin item.
