Accupro ACC-GR060002 Cut-off Grooving Tool Bit Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GR060002 is a single point cut-off and grooving tool bit designed for precision grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. It features a micrograin solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank, delivering the wear resistance and edge retention needed for tight-tolerance grooving work. The right-hand cutting direction suits standard lathe setups. With a groove width range of 0.060 to 0.062 inches and a maximum depth of cut of 0.210 inches, this tool bit handles narrow, shallow grooves with consistent dimensional accuracy. The shank measures 0.375 inches wide by 0.750 inches tall, fitting standard tool holders in that size range. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals will find this suited to production and job-shop turning environments alike.

This tool bit is used in ferrous and non-ferrous metal turning applications where cut-off and grooving operations require fine edge geometry and minimal vibration. The GR-style form is a common choice for external grooving on shafts, bushings, and similar cylindrical workpieces. The micrograin carbide grade supports both dry and coolant-assisted cuts at moderate to high surface speeds. Industry standard number GR-060002 identifies this as a catalogued geometry, making it straightforward to cross-reference against existing tooling layouts. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a compact, rigid grooving bit is needed in a 3/8 by 3/4 inch shank format.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for superior edge retention and wear resistance in grooving applications
• Groove width range of 0.060 to 0.062 inches suits narrow external groove requirements
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.210 inches for controlled material removal
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard lathe and turning center setups
• Shank dimensions of 3/8 inch width by 3/4 inch height for secure seating in matching tool holders
• Minimum nose radius of 0.002 inches supports tight corner geometry in precision parts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and direct cross-reference to industry standard number GR-060002, this tool bit fits standard tool holders accepting a 3/8 inch wide by 3/4 inch tall rectangular shank in cut-off and grooving configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the lathe or turning center before seating or removing tool bits. Ensure the shank is fully supported in the tool holder with the cutting edge set to the correct center height before tightening. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for tool overhang and clamping torque to prevent chatter during grooving passes.
