Accupro ACC-LC437080 Single Point Tool Bit Cut-off Grooving

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-LC437080 is an LC-style single point tool bit designed for cut-off and grooving operations on manual and CNC lathes. It features a solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank, providing edge retention and heat resistance in demanding turning applications. The shank measures 7/16 inches wide by 7/16 inches tall with an overall length of 6 inches. The tip width and tip thickness each measure 0.080 inches, making this bit well suited for narrow parting and grooving cuts. Cutting direction is left hand. Machinists and tool and die professionals install this bit in standard tool holders designed for LC-style geometry.

This tool bit is intended for use in metal-cutting lathe applications where cut-off and grooving operations are required. The 7/16 inch square shank fits standard tool post holders and turret-style holders commonly found on engine lathes and turret lathes in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. The left-hand cutting direction suits applications where the carriage feeds toward the tailstock or where workpiece orientation requires a LH approach. The solid carbide tip handles ferrous and non-ferrous materials across a range of cutting conditions.
