Harvey Tool 866708-C6 Engraving Cutter 60 Degree Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 866708-C6 is a solid carbide engraving cutter designed for precision engraving and marking operations on hardened steel. It features a 60-degree included angle with a tipped-off point geometry and a 0.005-inch tip diameter, which allows for fine detail work with controlled line width. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in demanding applications. With a 1/8-inch cutter diameter and a 0.103-inch length of cut, this cutter is suited for shallow engraving passes requiring tight dimensional accuracy. It is installed and operated by machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and precision fabricators working on CNC mills and engraving machines.

This engraving cutter is intended for use on hardened steel workpieces in precision machining environments. The tipped-off point geometry provides a flat reference at the cutting tip, making it suitable for applications where a true V-groove with a controlled flat bottom is required. With a 1/8-inch shank diameter and a 1.5-inch overall length, it fits standard collet systems on CNC machining centers and dedicated engraving equipment. The 2-flute right-hand cutting configuration supports chip evacuation in ferrous engraving applications.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hardened steel applications
• AlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life
• 60-degree included angle with tipped-off point for controlled flat-bottom V-groove geometry
• 0.005-inch tip diameter enabling fine detail and narrow line engraving
• Right-hand cut, 2-flute design for efficient chip removal
• 1/8-inch shank compatible with standard collet toolholding systems

Compatibility

Designed for use on hardened steel materials. Fits standard 1/8-inch collet toolholders on CNC machining centers and engraving machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and the tool is secure in the collet before initiating any cut. Verify runout after tool installation to maintain engraving accuracy. Follow the machine manufacturer's recommended speeds and feeds for solid carbide engraving tools on hardened steel.
