Accupro 135-MG Carbide Single Point Tool Bit 1 in Lh

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 135-MG is a single point tool bit designed for square shoulder turning operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip, this left-hand cutting tool delivers consistent performance on boring, chamfering, and turning operations. The shank measures 1 inch in width and 1 inch in height, with an overall length of 7 inches. The nose radius is 1/32 inch, suited for tight-tolerance finish work. At 1.6 pounds, the tool bit provides substantial mass for rigidity during cuts. Machinists and toolroom professionals working on CNC lathes and manual turning centers will find this tool fits standard tool holders for 1-inch shank tooling.

This tool bit is intended for left-hand cutting setups on metalworking lathes. It is rated for boring, chamfering, and turning applications, making it suitable for both production and job-shop environments where square shoulder profiles are required. The AL tool bit style corresponds to industry standard number AL-16, indicating standardized geometry that fits common tool posts and holders across standard machine configurations. It is appropriate for shops running aluminum and similar materials where micrograin carbide provides a durable, sharp cutting edge with good wear resistance.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for sharp, wear-resistant cutting performance
• Left-hand cutting direction for conventional lathe setups requiring reverse-feed geometry
• Square shoulder turning profile for precise shoulder and face work
• 1/32 inch nose radius suited for finishing and moderate stock removal
• 1 inch by 1 inch shank cross-section fits standard heavy-duty tool holders
• AL-16 industry standard geometry for broad toolholder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard tool posts and holders accepting a 1 inch by 1 inch shank. Conforms to industry standard AL-16 geometry for square shoulder turning applications.

Installation Notes

This tool bit is installed and serviced by qualified machinists and toolroom technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamping screws are tightened evenly before beginning any cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use and replace if the cutting edge is compromised.
