Accupro 320-MG Solid Carbide Single Point Tool Bit Lh

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 320-MG is a single point tool bit designed for precision metal cutting operations in production and job shop environments. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip, this left-hand BL-style bit delivers consistent edge integrity across demanding applications including boring, chamfering, interrupted cuts, and lead angle turning. The 0.5 inch shank width and 0.5 inch shank height fit standard tool holders, while the 3.5 inch overall length and 1/32 inch nose radius suit a range of workpiece geometries. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals handling tight-tolerance turning work will find this bit suited to both roughing interrupted cuts and finish turning passes.

This tool bit is configured for left-hand cutting direction, making it appropriate for applications where the tool feeds from left to right across the workpiece. The BL style and lead angle geometry support chamfering entry cuts and general turning on lathes and boring mills. The micrograin carbide grade provides a fine, uniform grain structure that supports sharper edge retention and improved surface finish compared to standard carbide grades. It is sold individually and fits the typical tool post and holder setups found in manual and CNC turning centers.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit single point tool bit for standard 0.5 inch square shank tool holders used in manual and CNC turning applications. Industry Standard Number BL-8.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists following standard tool holder clamping procedures. Ensure the machine is powered down and the spindle is fully stopped before changing tool bits. Secure the shank firmly in the tool post or boring bar holder to the appropriate clamping torque specified by the holder manufacturer. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use, as micrograin carbide is effective but brittle under excessive side loading.
