The Brownells #8 Shank Shotgun Bead Facing Cutter with .166″ diameter delivers precision sight alignment for shotgun bead installation. This six-bladed cutter with precisely drilled hollow center accepts bead shank, and turning the handle trims base of the bead at a true 90° angle that’s absolutely square with the shank.
Faces-off the base of “Bradley”-style (Bev-L-Blok, Raybar, Sunspot, etc.) beads so they end up straight and square to the center of the rib or barrel when tightened. No more shimming, loctite workarounds, or gaps between bead and rib—this professional tool ensures your sight installation is perfect every time.
Specifications include six blade cutter design, high speed steel construction, 3½” (8.8cm) overall length, and 1-1/8″ (2.8cm) diameter handle. The tool features durable high-speed steel and compact design for easy handling. Whether you’re a professional gunsmith or serious shotgun enthusiast, this specialized cutter is an essential tool for achieving squared-up bead installations that function reliably and look professional.
