Accupro ACC-LC625080 Single Point Tool Bit Carbide Lh

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-LC625080 is a left-hand, single point tool bit designed for cut-off and grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Built to the LC industry standard, it features a micrograin solid carbide tip brazed to a rigid steel shank. The shank measures 5/8 inch wide by 5/8 inch tall, and the overall length is 4 inches. The tip thickness and tip width are each 0.080 inches, making it suited to narrow parting and grooving cuts. Machinists and tool-and-die trades use this style of bit when a sharp, repeatable cutting edge and tight dimensional tolerance are required on the workpiece groove or cutoff face.

This tool bit is used in production and job-shop environments where left-hand cut-off or grooving operations are performed on a lathe or turning center. The LC style designation indicates a standardized geometry recognized across the metalworking industry. Typical applications include parting off bar stock, cutting snap-ring grooves, and producing narrow undercuts on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Sold individually, it fits standard tool holders sized for 5/8 inch square shank bits.

Key Features

• Left-hand cutting direction for setups requiring reverse-feed or back-turning configurations
• 5/8 inch by 5/8 inch square shank fits standard LC-style tool holders
• 0.080 inch tip width and tip thickness for narrow parting and grooving cuts
• 4 inch overall length provides sufficient reach in most standard lathe tool posts
• LC industry standard geometry ensures dimensional interchangeability with compatible holders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fit for tool holders accepting a 5/8 inch square shank LC-style single point tool bit. Conforms to Industry Standard Number LC-625080.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the lathe or turning center before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Ensure the carbide tip is fully supported by the holder pocket and that the set screws are tightened evenly to prevent tip movement under cutting load. Inspect the brazed tip for cracks or chipping before each use, as carbide is brittle and should not be subjected to interrupted heavy cuts beyond its rated geometry.
