BROWNELLS FRONT SIGHT INSERT CUTTER

Create clean, precise front sight insert dovetails with the Brownells Front Sight Insert Cutter. Designed specifically for cutting dovetails in front sight blades for colored sight inserts, this specialized cutter helps gunsmiths and firearm enthusiasts achieve professional-quality results with greater efficiency and consistency. The cutter produces a 1/4" wide dovetail, making it ideal for a variety of front sight insert applications where precision fitment is critical.

Manufactured from durable High Speed Steel (HSS), the Front Sight Insert Cutter is engineered for accurate machining and long service life. Its compact profile tapers to a.110" diameter, allowing for detailed work while maintaining excellent control. To prevent tool damage and improve cutting performance, Brownells recommends making an initial relief cut with a 1/8" end mill before using the dovetail cutter. This reduces cutter load and helps ensure smooth, precise results.

CAUTION: For use in milling machine only.

DO NOT EXCEED 700 rpm, HIGHER SPEED WILL BREAK TEETH.
