DRAPER TOOLS 35mm TCT Kitchen Door Hinge Cutter

The DRAPER TOOLS 35mm TCT Kitchen Door Hinge Cutter is a professional-grade accessory designed specifically for the precise installation of recessed cup hinges, a critical component in modern kitchen and cabinet door fitting. Its heavy-duty construction features a tungsten carbide-tipped (TCT) cutting head, renowned for its exceptional hardness and long-lasting sharpness, ensuring you can make multiple clean cuts without frequent tool changes.

A key feature is the integrated centre point, which prevents the bit from wandering and allows for accurate, controlled drilling right from the start. The cutter is engineered with twin cutting edges that work efficiently to remove waste material quickly, resulting in a smooth, flat-bottomed hole that is perfectly sized to accommodate a standard 35mm hinge cup. This design minimises tear-out and delivers a professional finish that is ready for hinge installation.

Versatile Material Compatibility

This hinge cutter is suitable for use on a wide range of common workshop and furniture materials. It performs excellently on softwood, medium-density hardwood, chipboard, and MDF (medium-density fibreboard), making it an indispensable tool for carpenters, kitchen fitters, and DIY enthusiasts tackling cabinet projects.

Easy to Use

Designed for convenience, the cutter is compatible with most standard power drills featuring a 10mm or 13mm chuck, ensuring it fits the majority of tools found in a typical workshop. Its robust build provides the durability needed for repeated use in a professional environment, offering reliable performance and value over time. With this specialised bit, you can achieve consistent, recessed hinge installations with speed and accuracy, streamlining your cabinet assembly workflow.
