Rittal 4050891 Quadruple HSS Replacement Cutter, 6 mm
The Rittal Quadruple HSS Replacement Cutter is a precision machining accessory engineered as a replacement cutter for the Rittal Perforex machining center BC and the Rittal Perforex Milling Terminal MT. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a Co8TiAIN coating and a quadruple-cutter geometry, this 6 mm diameter tool is designed to support faster feed rates of up to 1.5 m/min when machining carbon steel and stainless steel workpieces. Manufactured to the DIN 844 tooling standard, it is built to deliver consistent, repeatable cutting performance on Rittal Perforex CNC machining systems used for enclosure and panel fabrication.
Key Features
- Diameter: 6 mm cutter diameter sized for precision hole, slot, and cutout machining on Perforex BC and MT systems.
- Durable Construction: High-speed steel (HSS) body with a Co8TiAIN coating for added wear resistance, heat tolerance, and extended tool life in production machining environments.
- Quadruple Cutter Design: Four-cutting-edge geometry is engineered to support faster feed rates of up to 1.5 m/min, helping reduce cycle time on repetitive machining runs.
- Standards Compliance: Manufactured to the DIN 844 tooling standard for dimensional consistency and predictable fit in compatible tool holders.
- Material Compatibility: Rated for machining both carbon steel and stainless steel workpieces, giving it flexibility across common enclosure and panel materials.
- Packaging: Supplied in packs of 5 pc(s), with a weight of 0.07 kg per packaging unit, making it easy to stock replacement cutters for ongoing production.

Rittal 4050891 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can this 6 mm cutter machine stainless steel enclosures, or only mild steel?
Both. The cutter is rated for carbon steel and stainless steel workpieces, which covers the usual enclosure and panel materials. The HSS body carries a Co8TiAIN coating for wear resistance and heat tolerance in production runs.
2) Can an Ideal Industries 36-812 hole cutter pilot bit be used in place of the Rittal 4050891 cutter?
No. The Ideal Industries 36-812 is a replacement pilot bit for a hole cutter, meaning it centers and guides a hole saw during drilling. The Rittal 4050891 is a 6 mm quadruple-cutter milling tool made from HSS with a Co8TiAIN coating and built to DIN 844 for use in Rittal Perforex BC machining centers and Perforex Milling Terminal MT systems, where it mills holes, slots, and cutouts in carbon steel and stainless steel enclosure panels. The two do different work and seat in different tooling, so one does not stand in for the other.
3) What feed rate can I run with the Rittal quadruple HSS cutter?
The four-cutting-edge geometry supports feed rates up to 1.5 m/min in carbon steel and stainless steel. That is the point of the quadruple configuration over a two-flute tool: fewer seconds per cutout on repetitive panel work.
4) How many cutters come in a pack of Rittal 4050891?
Supplied in a packaging unit of 5 pieces, at 0.07 kg per packaging unit. Useful if you are keeping spare tooling on the shelf for a Perforex cell rather than ordering one at a time.
5) For drilling a hole in a panel with a hole saw rather than CNC milling, which cutter is the right part?
That job calls for the Ideal Industries 36-812 hole cutter pilot bit, which replaces the centering bit in a hole cutter assembly for hand-drilled holes. The Rittal 4050891 is a 6 mm quadruple HSS cutter built to DIN 844 for Rittal Perforex BC and Perforex Milling Terminal MT machining centers, so it is the part to order only when the cutouts are being produced on that CNC equipment.
6) Does DIN 844 mean the cutter will fit a standard milling holder?
The tool is manufactured to DIN 844, the dimensional standard for HSS end mills, so shank and body dimensions are consistent with that standard. Rittal specifies it for Perforex BC and MT tool holders, which is where it is intended to run.
