The I142_01 Keyhole Cutter makes compact keyhole-shaped mounting slots for wall-hung parts that locate over a screw head and slide into position. Its smaller 16 mm diameter is useful where the fixing point needs to stay discreet, such as frames, light shelves, signs and compact cabinet components.
Applications
- Compact concealed mounting slots for frames and signs
- Wall-hung panels, small shelves and light cabinet parts
- Repeatable slot locations made with a jig or programmed path
Setup and Fit
Confirm that the 6 mm threaded connection is compatible with your holder or spindle. Test the slot in scrap using the actual mounting screw: the entry must clear the screw head and the narrow section must support the workpiece without excess movement.
Routing Tips
Clamp the work securely and guide the cutter with a template, fence or CNC path. Keep the slot aligned with the workpiece, clear chips regularly and test the final hang before cutting finished material.
