Harvey Tool 851208-C6 Engraving Cutter 30 Degree 1/8 in

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 851208-C6 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precision material removal in CNC milling and engraving operations. Featuring a 30-degree included angle and a tip radius point geometry, this cutter produces clean, accurate engraved lines and chamfered features. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life when cutting hard materials. With a 1/8 inch cutter diameter and 0.204 inch length of cut, it is suited for fine detail work. Machinists and CNC programmers working with hardened steel specify this tool for its edge retention and coating performance in demanding cutting environments.

The 851208-C6 is intended for use on hardened steel and is well suited to CNC machining centers and engraving machines running right-hand cutting programs. The 1/8 inch shank fits standard collets and tool holders common in production and job shop environments. With a 1-1/2 inch overall length and 2-flute configuration, it balances reach with rigidity for controlled depth engraving and V-groove work. This cutter is typically installed by machinists and CNC operators performing part marking, decorative engraving, or precision chamfering operations on hardened workpieces.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hardened steel applications
• AlTiN coating provides thermal protection and extended tool life at elevated cutting temperatures
• 30-degree included angle with tip radius point geometry for accurate V-groove and engraving profiles
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard CNC milling programs
• 2-flute design promotes chip evacuation in fine engraving passes
• 1/8 inch shank fits widely available collets and tool holders without adapters

Compatibility

Designed for use on hardened steel. Fits standard 1/8 inch collets and tool holders used in CNC milling machines and engraving systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the 1/8 inch shank fully into the collet and torque the collet nut according to the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout and tool length offset in the control before beginning a cutting program.
