Accupro ACC-GR038F Single Point Cut-off Grooving Tool Bit

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GR038F is a right-hand single point tool bit engineered for cut-off and grooving operations on lathes and turning centers. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip, it delivers consistent edge integrity and wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials. The shank measures 0.375 inches wide and 0.75 inches tall, providing a rigid platform that minimizes chatter and deflection during grooving passes. A minimum groove width of 0.038 inches and a maximum depth of cut of 0.12 inches make this tool well-suited for tight-tolerance groove profiles. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in precision turning environments are the primary users of this tool bit.

This tool bit is designed for use in production and job-shop turning applications where accurate groove geometry and reliable tool life are required. It handles both cut-off and grooving operations in a right-hand cutting orientation. The GR style with full-radius geometry supports clean groove floor finishes and is applicable to ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. It is sold and packaged as a single unit, making it practical for both individual replacement and tooling qualification purposes.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for improved hardness and edge retention
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe toolpost setups
• Full radius geometry supports smooth groove floor profiles
• Minimum groove width of 0.038 inches for tight groove tolerance work
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.12 inches suits a range of grooving depths
• Rigid shank cross-section (0.375 inches wide by 0.75 inches tall) reduces deflection

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for GR-style single point grooving tool holders accepting a 0.375-inch wide by 0.75-inch tall shank in standard lathe and turning center toolpost configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Secure the tool bit in the holder to the specified clamping torque for the toolpost system in use before powering the machine. Confirm tool height alignment to spindle centerline before making a cut. Do not exceed the rated maximum depth of cut of 0.12 inches in a single pass.
