Accupro ACC-BB160600 Boring Bar Submicron Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-BB160600 is a submicron solid carbide boring bar designed for precision internal boring operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. It cuts right-hand and handles a minimum bore diameter of 0.16 inches with a maximum bore depth of 0.6 inches. The submicron carbide grade delivers fine grain structure for improved edge retention and surface finish in tight-tolerance bores. A bright finish coating keeps the bar free of additional coatings that can affect dimensional accuracy in close work. With a 3/16-inch shank diameter and a 2-inch overall length, this bar fits compact toolholders used in small-bore applications.

This boring bar is suited for small-diameter internal turning in precision machining environments, including job shops, tool rooms, and production cells running small parts. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a rigid, solid carbide tool is required to minimize chatter and hold tight bore tolerances. Machinists working on medical, aerospace, or instrument components will find the submicron grade well matched to fine finishing passes.

Key Features

• Submicron solid carbide grade provides superior edge retention in small-bore finishing
• Minimum bore diameter of 0.16 inches enables access to very small internal diameters
• Maximum bore depth of 0.6 inches suits short, precise through and blind bores
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe and CNC turning setups
• Bright finish coating maintains close dimensional tolerances at the cutting edge
• 3/16-inch shank diameter fits compact boring bar holders and tool blocks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide boring bar for use in standard toolholders accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter on CNC lathes and manual turning centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the boring bar from its holder. Ensure the shank is fully supported in the holder to minimize overhang and reduce chatter during the cut. Follow shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines when setting tool offsets and running initial test passes.
