Shear-Hog™ 1" Modular Insert Tooling Cutting Head

The Shear-Hog™ 1" Modular Insert Cutting Head is a high-efficiency insert milling solution engineered for aggressive aluminum roughing and non-ferrous machining. Designed to deliver exceptional material removal rates—up to 6 cubic inches per minute (CIM) per horsepower—this tool maximizes productivity while maintaining stable cutting performance.

Manufactured in California, USA by AB Tools Inc. for Tormach, the Shear-Hog cutting head is precision-built for demanding CNC milling environments. Its single-insert design concentrates cutting forces for efficient power usage, making it ideal for shops looking to push aluminum removal rates without overloading the spindle.

The modular design allows maximum cutting depth to vary based on arbor length, providing flexibility across a wide range of setups. Designed to accept ADEH-43x series carbide inserts, the Shear-Hog delivers consistent performance in both prototyping and small-batch production.
