Accupro ACC-GF069-12 Full Radius Grooving Tool Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GF069-12 is a full radius grooving tool designed for internal grooving operations on CNC lathes and boring machines. Constructed from submicron-grade solid carbide, this tool delivers consistent cutting performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 3/8 inch shank diameter and 0.070 inch groove width make it well suited for tight-tolerance groove profiles where edge integrity and dimensional repeatability are critical. Machinists and tooling specialists rely on solid carbide construction at this scale for its hardness and wear resistance in high-RPM turning applications.

This grooving tool is intended for use in internal grooving and undercutting operations requiring a full radius profile. It is appropriate for production turning environments in job shops, aerospace component machining, and precision parts manufacturing. With a minimum hole diameter of 0.375 inches and a maximum hole depth of 0.750 inches, it fits bore entry conditions common in small-diameter internal groove work. The 0.110 inch projection and 2.5 inch overall length provide the reach and clearance needed for typical bore depths in this size range.

Key Features

• Full radius cutting geometry for clean, consistent groove profiles
• Submicron-grade solid carbide construction for extended tool life and wear resistance
• 3/8 inch shank diameter for compatibility with standard boring bar holders and collet chucks
• 0.070 inch groove width suited for tight-tolerance internal groove applications
• 0.110 inch projection provides controlled reach within confined bore environments
• 2.5 inch overall length balances rigidity with access in small-diameter bores

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 3/8 inch shank toolholders and collet-style boring bar setups used in CNC turning and manual lathe applications requiring internal full radius grooving.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician familiar with CNC lathe tooling setup. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool turret is in a safe index position before mounting or removing the tool. Verify shank runout and projection length against workpiece bore geometry before initiating a cut. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines and shop safety procedures when setting cutting parameters for carbide tooling.
