Accupro 01789163 Engraving Cutter 1/4 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 01789163 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precise material removal in engraving, detailing, and light milling operations. It features a 1/4 inch cutter diameter with a square point tip measuring 0.25 inches, making it well suited for sharp-cornered cuts and fine detail work. The single-flute, right-hand cutting geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in confined passes. Manufactured from micrograin solid carbide, this cutter delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for demanding work on metals, plastics, and composites. The uncoated finish is appropriate for applications where coating buildup or heat sensitivity is a concern.

This engraving cutter is used in CNC machining centers, engraving machines, and manual or automated milling setups where fine detail and dimensional accuracy are required. It is appropriate for job shop, production, and toolroom environments handling parts that require engraved text, logos, part numbers, or decorative profiles. The 3/8 inch length of cut and 2 inch overall length suit shallow-depth engraving passes in both ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials. Machinists and CNC operators in metal fabrication and precision machining shops are the primary installers and users of this tool.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for high rigidity and edge retention
• Square point geometry for sharp-cornered, flat-bottomed engraving cuts
• Single flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation in narrow passes
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation
• Uncoated finish suitable for heat-sensitive or coating-incompatible applications
• 1/4 inch shank fits standard collets and toolholders without adapters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style engraving cutter for use in CNC machining centers and engraving machines accepting a 1/4 inch shank diameter collet or toolholder.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool is secured in a clean, undamaged collet before tightening to the toolholder specification. Verify runout after installation with a dial indicator before beginning a cut. Handle carbide tooling carefully to avoid chipping the cutting edge during setup and storage.
