Accupro ACC-GF087-12 Full Radius Grooving Tool

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GF087-12 is a full radius grooving tool manufactured from submicron solid carbide. It is designed for internal grooving operations, cutting a groove width of 0.0880 inches with a 3/8-inch shank diameter. The submicron carbide grade delivers extended tool life and edge retention in demanding materials, including hardened steels and stainless. With an overall length of 2.5 inches and a projection of 0.1100 inches, this tool is suited for precise, repeatable groove profiles in tight-tolerance machining applications. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this tool in CNC lathes and turning centers.

This grooving tool is used in internal grooving and profiling operations where a full radius groove form is required. It is suited for residential and commercial machine shop environments, tool and die work, and production turning operations. The 3/8-inch shank fits standard boring bar holders and quick-change tooling systems. Minimum hole diameter entry is 0.3750 inches, making it appropriate for small-bore internal grooving where clearance is limited. Maximum hole depth capacity is 0.7500 inches (3/4 inch).

Key Features

• Submicron solid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance
• Full radius groove form for accurate profile geometry
• 0.0880-inch groove width for precise slot cutting
• 3/8-inch shank diameter fits standard tool holders
• Minimum bore entry of 0.3750 inches enables small-hole internal grooving
• Maximum hole depth of 0.7500 inches supports a range of workpiece configurations

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8-inch shank boring bar holders and quick-change tooling systems used in CNC lathes and manual turning centers that accept 3/8-inch shank grooving tools.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Before inserting or removing the tool, confirm the machine is powered off and the spindle is fully stopped. Secure the shank firmly in the tool holder to the holder manufacturer's specified clamping method, ensuring proper projection length. Do not exceed the maximum recommended depth of cut for the material and groove width being machined.
