Accupro 703-MG Single Point Tool Bit 3/8 Inch Offset Threading

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 703-MG is a single point tool bit engineered for precision threading and V-grooving operations on metal lathes and turning centers. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip brazed to a rigid shank, this bit delivers consistent thread form geometry at a 60-degree included angle. The right-hand, offset threading configuration is suited for threading up to a shoulder where clearance is limited. With a 3/8 inch square shank and 2.5 inch overall length, it fits standard tool holders used in production and job shop environments. Installation is handled by machinists and tool and die technicians working with ER-series tooling setups.

The 703-MG is designed for threading and V-grooving-to-shoulder applications on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. Its ER-style, offset geometry allows the cutting edge to reach into tight shoulder clearances that a straight tool bit cannot access. This bit is suited for manual engine lathes and CNC turning operations where repeatability and edge integrity are required across moderate production runs. The micrograin carbide tip resists chipping at higher cutting speeds compared to standard carbide grades.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for improved edge retention and resistance to chipping
• 60-degree included angle for standard thread form cutting and V-grooving
• Offset threading geometry allows threading-to-shoulder without interference
• Right-hand cutting direction for conventional lathe rotation
• ER-6 industry standard number for cross-reference and tooling compatibility
• 3/8 inch square shank fits standard brazed tool bit holders

Compatibility

Conforms to industry standard number ER-6. Designed for use in standard 3/8 inch square shank tool bit holders on manual and CNC turning equipment configured for ER-style single point threading tooling.

Installation Notes

This tool bit is installed and adjusted by qualified machinists. Secure the shank firmly in the tool holder and verify center height alignment before beginning a threading pass. Inspect the carbide tip for chips or wear before each use and replace if edge integrity is compromised. Follow all machine guarding and workholding procedures per shop safety standards.
