Accupro ACC-LT312 Single Point Tool Bit Lh Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-LT312 is a left-hand, LT-style single point tool bit designed for turning operations on metal lathes. Built with a micrograin solid carbide tip, it delivers consistent cutting performance and edge retention across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The shank measures 5/16 inches wide by 5/16 inches tall, and the overall length is 6 inches. This tool bit is intended for machinists and toolroom technicians who need a reliable, precision-ground cutting tool for external turning applications. The micrograin carbide grade provides fine grain structure for improved wear resistance and surface finish quality.

The ACC-LT312 is suited for external turning operations on manual and CNC lathes in job shop, production, and toolroom environments. The LT style and left-hand cutting direction make it appropriate for right-to-left turning passes. It is used in both light-duty and medium-duty cutting applications where solid carbide tip performance is required. Machinists select this style for its consistent geometry and compatibility with standard tool holders and turrets designed for 5/16-inch shank tooling.

Key Features

• Left-hand cutting direction for right-to-left turning passes
• LT-style tool bit geometry per industry standard number LT-312
• 5/16 inch square shank fits standard tool holders and turrets
• 6-inch overall length provides adequate reach for common lathe setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit single point tool bit for standard tool holders and lathe turrets accepting a 5/16-inch square shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Secure the tool bit firmly in the tool holder before powering the machine, and confirm that the cutting edge height is properly set to center before making a cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use and replace if edge integrity is compromised. Follow all machine guarding and lockout/tagout procedures before changing tooling.
