Accupro ACC-GS028F Single Point Tool Bit 3/8 Inch Shank

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-GS028F is a single point tool bit engineered for cut-off and grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip, this neutral-cut bit delivers consistent edge integrity and extended tool life in demanding production environments. It accepts a 3/8 inch shank width and 3/8 inch shank height, fitting standard tool holders in that size class. The GS-style geometry supports a maximum groove width of 0.030 inches and a maximum depth of cut of 0.090 inches, making it well-suited for precision grooving work where dimensional accuracy is critical. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this bit.

This tool bit is designed for grooving and cut-off applications on steel, stainless, cast iron, and similar materials where micrograin carbide provides the hardness and wear resistance required. The neutral cutting direction suits straight-in plunge operations without lateral tool pressure bias. Full radius geometry on the cutting edge helps produce clean groove profiles. Typical applications include O-ring groove cutting, undercut work, and parting operations on turned components in both job shop and production machining environments.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for superior hardness and wear resistance compared to standard carbide grades
• Neutral cutting direction for straight-in plunge grooving and cut-off operations
• Maximum groove width of 0.030 inches with a minimum groove width of 0.028 inches for tight-tolerance work
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.090 inches suitable for shallow precision grooves
• Full radius cutting edge geometry produces consistent groove profiles
• GS tool bit style with 3/8 inch shank width and 3/8 inch shank height for standard tool holder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for industry standard GS-028F style tool bits. Compatible with tool holders sized for 3/8 inch square shank tool bits used on CNC and manual turning equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Secure the tool bit firmly in the holder and verify shank seating before operation. Confirm spindle and feed settings are appropriate for the workpiece material and groove geometry before engaging the cut. Never exceed the stated maximum depth of cut or groove width for this tool bit style.
