Accupro ACC-GF017Q-4 Full Radius Grooving Tool

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GF017Q-4 is a full radius grooving tool machined from submicron-grade solid carbide. It is designed for internal grooving operations in small-diameter bores, producing a full radius groove profile in a single pass. The 1/4 inch shank diameter pairs with a 0.0175 inch groove width and a 0.0600 inch projection, making it suited for precision work in tight bore envelopes. Machinists and toolroom operators install this tool on CNC lathes or boring setups where consistent groove geometry and tool rigidity are critical. The submicron carbide grade provides wear resistance and edge stability at higher cutting speeds.

This grooving tool is used in machining operations requiring full radius internal grooves in workpieces with a minimum hole diameter of 0.2500 inches and a maximum hole depth of 0.2500 inches. It fits residential toolroom, job shop, and production machining environments where small-bore grooving demands close tolerances. The 2.5 inch overall length provides adequate reach while maintaining rigidity. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous materials where carbide tooling is specified.

Key Features

• Submicron-grade solid carbide construction for edge retention and wear resistance
• Full radius groove profile produced in a single pass
• 0.0175 inch groove width for narrow, precise internal grooves
• 1/4 inch shank diameter compatible with standard collet and toolholder systems
• 0.0600 inch projection suits small-bore grooving within a 0.2500 inch maximum hole depth
• 2.5 inch overall length balances reach and tool stiffness

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit grooving tool for CNC lathes and boring machines equipped with 1/4 inch shank toolholders requiring full radius internal grooving capability.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists familiar with lathe tooling and CNC setup procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool is secured to the correct torque specification for the toolholder being used before operation. Confirm bore clearance meets the 0.2500 inch minimum hole diameter requirement before engaging the cut. Do not exceed the 0.2500 inch maximum hole depth to prevent tool deflection or breakage.
