Harvey Tool 29616-C3 Engraving Cutter 60 Deg 1/4 in Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 29616-C3 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precise marking, engraving, and detail work on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It features a 60-degree included angle with a pointed tip geometry, delivering clean, sharp lines in demanding engraving applications. The cutter carries an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating for improved hardness and heat resistance at the cutting edge. At 1/4 inch in diameter with a 0.212-inch length of cut and 2-flute configuration, this tool is built for tight-tolerance engraving passes where edge integrity and surface finish matter. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.

This engraving cutter is suited for use on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, making it a versatile option for machine shops, tool rooms, and production environments requiring part marking, logo engraving, or decorative detail work. The right-hand cutting direction and solid carbide construction make it appropriate for CNC machining centers and engraving machines running at higher spindle speeds. The 1/4-inch shank fits standard collets and tool holders common in most shop setups.

Compatibility

Designed for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Compatible with CNC machining centers and engraving machines equipped with standard 1/4-inch collets or ER-style tool holders.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and power is off before loading or changing the tool. Verify collet runout and torque the tool holder to machine manufacturer specifications before cutting. Do not exceed the tool's rated length of cut of 0.212 inches when programming depth passes.
