TOTAL INTERLOCK WIDTH (W). The total interlock width (W) is equal to the overall width of an interlocking cutter. The total interlock width (W) is normally equal to thewidth of the slot to be machined. This width is measured over the two pieces within the interlocking cutter as shown in Fig.36 and Fig.37. Unless otherwise specified, tolerance on W Dimension is (+/-).001. Specify the following information when ordering:
1. Quantity of Interlocking Cutters required.
2. Diameter of Interlocking Cutters ( D).
3. Interlock Width (W )
4. Hole Size requiredInterlock or overlap can be varied from as small as .010 to 3/32 or more depending upon the widths selected. Hubs may be ground in customer's plant, by a local grinding service shop, or at the Niagara Cutter plant. When sharpening reduces the total interlock width, shims may be used between hubs to regain the original total interlock width.
