Product Description
The CMT CMT333-4595 Boring Head for Blum/Salice, 45/9.5 mm is a precision hinge boring head engineered for use with the CMT333 universal hinge boring system. Designed to bore the 35 mm cup hole required for 45/9.5 mm Blum-style hinges, this boring head is also compatible with Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinge systems - making it a genuinely versatile solution for cabinetmakers, furniture manufacturers, and professional woodworkers who demand consistent, repeatable results across multiple hinge brands. The CMT333 three-spindle-head system this component belongs to allows operators to bore holes for virtually any hinge brand using a single modular platform, reducing setup time and tooling costs in production and custom shop environments alike.
Key Features
- Compatible with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinge systems - one boring head covers multiple major hinge brands, reducing the number of dedicated jigs needed in the shop
- 45/9.5 mm boring specification - precisely matched to Blum-style hinge cup geometry for accurate, consistent cup hole placement every time
- Part of the CMT333 universal hinge boring system with 3 spindle-heads - the modular design lets you configure the system for any hinge brand rather than purchasing separate dedicated jigs
- Ground aluminum (Avional) construction - lightweight yet rigid material keeps the boring head stable during operation while resisting wear over extended use
- Complete anti-rust parts - corrosion-resistant components extend the service life of the boring head even in humid shop environments
- Maximum 5,000 RPM rated speed - supports efficient material removal when paired with appropriate router or boring machine setups
Why This Product
- Multi-brand compatibility in a single tool - because this boring head works with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinges, shops working with multiple hardware suppliers can standardize on one CMT333 system rather than maintaining a collection of brand-specific jigs
- Purpose-built for the CMT333 modular platform - the boring head slots directly into a proven three-spindle-head architecture, so woodworkers benefit from a structured, expandable system rather than a one-off accessory
- Anti-rust, Avional aluminum construction addresses a common durability concern in active shop environments where moisture and repeated handling degrade tooling over time
- Exact 45/9.5 mm geometry eliminates guesswork during hinge cup layout, which is critical for door overlay alignment and proper hinge function in cabinet and furniture production
