Accupro ACC-RXL2 Convex Radius Cutting Tool Bit 1/16 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-RXL2 is a left-hand, convex radius cutting tool bit designed for precision radius turning and profiling operations on a lathe. Built in the RXL style, this carbide-tipped bit measures 2.5 inches in overall length with a 0.375-inch square shank, a 0.375-inch long tip, and a tip thickness of 0.09375 inches (3/32 inch). The 1/16-inch convex radius geometry produces a consistent concave profile on the workpiece. Machinists and toolroom technicians reach for this bit when a controlled radius form is required on a turned part.

This tool bit is suited for manual and CNC lathes performing radius form turning, profiling, and finishing cuts where a left-hand feed direction is required. It is appropriate for light to medium stock removal in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The carbide tip provides heat and wear resistance for sustained cutting performance in production and job-shop environments alike.

Key Features

• Convex RXL-style geometry produces a 1/16-inch concave radius on the workpiece
• Left-hand cut orientation for right-to-left feed direction on the lathe
• Carbide tip for extended tool life and resistance to wear at elevated cutting temperatures
• 3/8-inch square shank for standard lathe toolpost and boring bar holders
• Compact 2.5-inch overall length suits tight toolpost clearances
• 3/32-inch tip thickness provides rigidity at the cutting edge

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard toolroom insert for lathes accepting a 3/8-inch square shank tool bit.

Installation Notes

This tool bit is installed by a machinist or toolroom technician into a compatible 3/8-inch square shank toolholder or lathe toolpost. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before seating or adjusting the bit. Confirm the tool tip is set to center height and that the toolholder is fully clamped before taking a cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use.
