Harvey Tool 825508-C6 Engraving Cutter 30 Deg 1/8 in Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 825508-C6 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precision material removal in hardened steel applications. It features a 30-degree included angle with a tip radius point geometry, which concentrates cutting force at the tip for controlled, accurate engraving lines. The cutter carries an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating that increases surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life when machining abrasive or hardened workpiece materials. With a 0.211-inch length of cut and a 1/8-inch cutter diameter, this tool is sized for fine detail work on CNC machining centers and engraving equipment operated by experienced machinists and tool-and-die professionals.

This engraving cutter is suited for use on hardened steel in both production and prototype environments. It is commonly deployed on CNC mills and dedicated engraving machines where consistent depth and line width are required. The right-hand cutting direction and two-flute configuration promote chip clearance in tight engraving channels. At 1-1/2 inches overall length with a 1/8-inch straight shank, it fits standard collet chuck toolholding systems used across most vertical machining centers and engraving platforms.

Key Features

• 30-degree included angle with tip radius point for precise engraving geometry
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hardened steel
• AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in abrasive materials
• Two-flute design promotes chip evacuation in narrow engraving paths
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation
• 1/8-inch straight shank fits common collet and ER toolholding systems

Compatibility

Designed for use on hardened steel workpiece materials. Intended for CNC machining centers and engraving equipment accepting a 1/8-inch shank diameter toolholder.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with CNC toolholding and engraving applications. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the control is in an e-stop or tool-change state before inserting or removing the cutter from the collet. Verify collet size matches the 1/8-inch shank before clamping, and inspect the tool tip for chips or coating damage prior to use. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling manufacturer guidelines for speed and feed parameters appropriate to hardened steel.
