Spline Broaches
One of the most common broaching operations is, cutting splines or serrations in machined holes.The broaching tool is guided in the round hole, the top of each broach tooth cuts the splines progressively deeper, generating the sides of the form as the depth increases. Splines, either straight or involute and serrations, are produced efficiently by broaching.
From standard involutes to special splines, Colonial is the supplier you want to help you achieve the lowest cost per piece. With our in-house engineering, let us design the best broaching tool to suite your application. We can do standard-design broaches from our catalog as well as custom broaches that meet your specifications and requirements.

We start by inspecting and documenting your broaching tools (with measurements, photos and bench tests).
We create a detailed report describing the condition of your tools and the necessary repairs.
With your approval, we disassemble your tools and make the necessary repairs.
We machine and re-cut where possible and use quality replacement parts when new parts are needed.
Once reassembled, we re-test and re-measure your tool to document the repairs.
