Accupro ACC-RXD10 Convex Radius Cutting Tool Bit

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-RXD10 is a convex radius cutting tool bit designed for precision radius turning and profiling operations on metal lathes and CNC turning centers. Built to the RXD style, this right-hand tool bit features a solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank, delivering the wear resistance and edge retention needed for consistent, repeatable cuts. The overall length is 3.5 inches with a 0.5-inch tip length and a 0.5-inch square shank. At 0.125 inches thick, the tip geometry is sized for a 5/16-inch convex radius. Licensed machinists, tool and die makers, and CNC operators install this type of tool bit in standard tool holders for external radius forming passes.

This tool bit suits external convex radius forming on manual engine lathes and CNC turning centers in job shop, production machining, and maintenance repair environments. The right-hand cutting direction means the tool feeds from right to left toward the headstock in standard orientation. It is appropriate for use on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a solid carbide cutting edge is indicated. The RXD style fits tool holders designed for that insert geometry and shank size.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip for extended tool life and edge retention in demanding turning applications
• 5/16-inch convex radius geometry for precise external profile forming
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe feed orientation
• 0.5-inch square shank for secure clamping in compatible tool holders
• 3.5-inch overall length with 0.5-inch tip length and 0.125-inch tip thickness
• RXD style for drop-in compatibility with holders designed for that geometry

Compatibility

Designed for use in tool holders that accept a 0.5-inch square shank and the RXD style bit geometry. Verify holder slot dimensions and cutting direction requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Power down and lock out the lathe or turning center before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamping screws are tightened evenly to prevent movement during the cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use and replace if the cutting edge is compromised.
