Harvey Tool 842810 Engraving Cutter 20 Deg 1/8 in Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 842810 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precise material marking, lettering, and engraving operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Built with a 20-degree included angle and a pointed tip geometry, this cutter produces clean, sharp V-groove lines with consistent depth control. The 1/8 inch cutter diameter is matched to a 1/8 inch shank, making it compatible with standard collet chucks on CNC routers and engraving machines. With 3 flutes and an uncoated solid carbide construction, it delivers rigid cutting performance in demanding metalworking environments. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this geometry for fine-detail work.

The 842810 is suited for engraving applications on ferrous metals such as steel and iron, as well as non-ferrous materials including aluminum, brass, and copper. Its 0.354 inch length of cut and 1-1/2 inch overall length make it appropriate for shallow engraving passes on flat workpieces and fixtures. Right-hand cutting direction is standard. This cutter is typically run on CNC engraving machines, vertical machining centers, or dedicated pantograph-style engravers in production and job-shop settings.

Key Features

• 20-degree included angle pointed tip for sharp, clean V-groove engraving
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance on metals
• 3-flute design for improved surface finish and chip evacuation
• Uncoated finish suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications
• Matched 1/8 inch cutter and shank diameter for standard collet compatibility
• Right-hand cutting direction for use with conventional CNC spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Fits standard 1/8 inch collet chucks on CNC engraving machines and vertical machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the cutter from the collet. Verify collet size matches the 1/8 inch shank before tightening. Inspect the cutting tip for chipping before each use, as carbide points are brittle and sensitive to impact.
