Accupro ACC-GR241-15 O-ring Grooving Tool Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GR241-15 is a solid carbide O-ring grooving tool designed for internal grooving operations that require precise groove geometry to accept O-ring seals. Built from submicron-grade solid carbide, this tool delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for consistent, repeatable cuts in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 3/8-inch shank diameter and a groove width of 0.2420 inches, it is sized for use in small-diameter bores where accurate groove profiles are critical to sealing performance. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on hydraulic fittings, pneumatic components, and fluid-system housings are the primary installers of this tool.

This grooving tool is suited for CNC lathes and manual turning operations requiring internal O-ring groove cuts in bores with a minimum hole diameter of 0.3750 inches. The 0.1250-inch projection keeps the cutting edge positioned correctly within the bore, while the 2-1/2-inch overall length provides clearance for toolholders in standard lathe setups. It is well matched to production and maintenance machining environments where dimensional accuracy directly affects seal reliability.

Key Features

• Solid submicron carbide construction for extended tool life and edge integrity
• 0.2420-inch groove width matched to standard O-ring groove profiles
• 3/8-inch shank diameter for compatibility with common collet and toolholder systems
• 0.1250-inch projection for accurate bore engagement in small-diameter holes
• Minimum hole diameter of 0.3750 inches enables work in tight internal features
• 2-1/2-inch overall length suits standard lathe toolpost setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-application grooving tool for internal O-ring groove operations in bores at or above 0.3750 inches minimum diameter, up to 15/16-inch maximum hole depth.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this tool should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with turning operations and cutting tool safety. Ensure the tool is seated securely in the collet or toolholder before operation, and verify runout is within acceptable limits for the required groove tolerance. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before any tool change. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines for feed rates and cutting speeds appropriate to solid carbide tooling.
