Accupro 805-MG El Offset Threading Tool Bit Left Hand

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 805-MG is a single-point tool bit configured for offset threading operations in precision machining applications. It features an EL-style profile with a left-hand cutting direction and is manufactured from solid carbide with a micrograin grade tip for consistent edge retention at high cutting speeds. The shank measures 3/8 inches in height and 3/8 inches in width, with an overall length of 2.5 inches. The 60-degree included angle makes it well-suited for threading and V-grooving operations, including cuts that run close to or directly into a shoulder. Machinists and CNC operators working on lathes and threading setups are the primary installers of this tool.

This tool bit is designed for threading and V-grooving to shoulder applications where a left-hand cut is required. The EL-style designation and offset geometry allow the tool to reach into tight clearances that standard straight-shank threading bits cannot access. It is appropriate for use in both manual lathe and CNC turning center toolholders that accept a 3/8 x 3/8 inch shank. Solid carbide micrograin construction supports use in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where fine thread profiles and clean shoulder approaches are critical to part quality.

Key Features

• EL-style offset geometry designed for threading and V-grooving to shoulder
• Left-hand cutting direction for reverse-thread and specialized turning setups
• Solid carbide micrograin tip for consistent edge retention and precise thread profiles
• 60-degree included angle matches standard thread form geometry
• Compact 2.5-inch overall length fits standard toolholders without extended overhang
• 3/8 x 3/8 inch shank fits common lathe and CNC turning tool blocks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style single-point threading bit for use in toolholders accepting a 3/8 x 3/8 inch square shank; conforms to industry standard number EL-6.

Installation Notes

This tool bit is installed and operated by machinists on manual lathes or CNC turning centers. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all motion is disabled before changing or seating any cutting tool. Tool bit should be seated securely in the toolholder with appropriate set screws torqued per the toolholder manufacturer guidance. Confirm cutting direction and spindle rotation match the left-hand configuration of this bit before initiating any threading pass.
