Accupro ACC-LC625125 Tool Bit Cut-off Grooving 5/8 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-LC625125 is a single point tool bit designed for cut-off and grooving operations on metalworking lathes and turning centers. Built to LC style standards, it features a micrograin solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank, delivering consistent edge retention and dimensional accuracy during interrupted or continuous cuts. The left-hand cutting direction suits applications where the tool feeds from left to right relative to the workpiece. With a 5/8 inch square shank profile and a 4 inch overall length, this bit fits standard boring bar and tool post holders sized for 5/8 inch tooling. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this insert style.

This tool bit is suited for production and job-shop turning environments where parting and narrow grooving operations are routine. The LC style designation follows industry standard numbering, making direct substitution straightforward on setups already tooled with LC-series holders. It handles ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a solid carbide tip provides sufficient rigidity and heat resistance. The 0.125 inch tip width creates clean, narrow grooves and efficient parting cuts, minimizing material waste at the cut-off point.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide tip for superior edge retention in cut-off and grooving applications
• LC style designation meets industry standard number LC-625125 for direct replacement compatibility
• Left-hand cutting direction for right-to-left tool travel setups
• 5/8 inch shank width and 5/8 inch shank height for a square, rigid shank profile
• 0.125 inch tip width and 0.120 inch tip thickness for precise narrow grooves and parting cuts
• 4 inch overall length provides reach suitable for standard tool post and turret mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement conforming to industry standard LC style tooling, compatible with tool holders and boring setups configured for 5/8 inch square shank single point tool bits.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Secure the shank firmly in the tool post or turret holder, ensuring the tip centerline aligns with the workpiece spindle centerline before engaging a cut. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Avoid using the tool for operations outside its rated cut-off and grooving application, as side loads or plunge angles beyond the tip geometry design can cause tip fracture.
