Accupro ACC-RC281060 Cut-off Grooving Tool Bit 9/32 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-RC281060 is a single-point, right-hand cut-off and grooving tool bit designed for precision parting and groove-cutting operations on a lathe. Built with a solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance required for consistent performance in production and job-shop environments. The shank measures 9/32 inches wide by 9/32 inches tall, and the overall length is 6 inches. Tip width and tip thickness are each 0.0600 inches, making it well-suited for narrow grooving and clean parting cuts. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this bit in compatible tool holders on manual or CNC lathes.

This tool bit is used in metal-cutting applications where a clean, narrow kerf is required, including parting stock to length and cutting external grooves. The RC style shank and right-hand cutting direction suit standard right-hand tool posts and quick-change holders commonly found in general-purpose turning centers. It is a single-piece, ready-to-use tool bit that requires no additional insert or separate tip assembly before mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. The lathe must be fully powered down and the spindle confirmed stopped before mounting or removing tool bits. The bit should be seated squarely in the tool holder with the cutting tip at or near center height, and set screws should be tightened to the tool holder manufacturer specification. Do not exceed the depth-of-cut or feed rate limits recommended for the workpiece material and carbide grade in use.
