American Made Quality
For use exclusively in the HMD130/HMD150 magnetic drills. They have a bayonet style twist lock shank for fast cutter changes without using tools. At one time, our president was putting the tooth geometry on every Hougen cutter in the world.
Why is that important?
Because Hougen employees take personal responsibility for the quality of every Hougen tool. We perform quality checks on the latest machinery to ensure each cutter is made to exact specifications and tolerances. When products are made outside the United States its hard to control the quality, that’s why we prefer to make our cutters right here at home. Made in the USA.
