Accupro ACC-RXL4 Radius Cutting Tool Bit 1/8 in Left Hand

Product Description

The ACCUPRO ACC-RXL4 is a left-hand, convex RXL style radius cutting tool bit designed for precision radius turning operations on a lathe or similar machine tool. The cutting tip is solid carbide, delivering consistent wear resistance and edge retention across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Overall length is 2.5 inches, with a 0.375-inch square shank, a 0.375-inch long tip, and a tip thickness of 0.09375 inches (3/32 inch). This bit is intended for machinists and tool-and-die professionals who require repeatable, controlled radius profiles in production or maintenance machining environments.

The ACC-RXL4 is suited for radius grooving and form turning applications where a convex 0.125-inch (1/8 inch) radius profile is required. The left-hand cutting direction makes it appropriate for operations that advance the tool from left to right relative to the workpiece. It fits standard 0.375-inch square toolholders common in manual and CNC lathe setups. Typical applications include job shops, maintenance machining, and production turning where consistent radius geometry is critical.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip for extended edge life and dimensional consistency
• RXL style convex profile generates a precise 1/8 inch radius
• Left-hand cutting direction for right-to-left tool travel applications
• 3/8 inch square shank fits standard toolpost and boring bar holders
• Compact 2.5 inch overall length suits tight clearance setups
• 3/32 inch tip thickness provides rigidity in interrupted or continuous cuts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit cutting tool bit for lathes and turning centers equipped with 3/8 inch square shank toolholders.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool-and-die technicians. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before seating or replacing the tool bit in the toolholder. Secure the shank firmly in the toolpost to prevent chatter or movement during the cut. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting tool height and engaging the cut.
