Internal Tool 24-1200 Interior Grooving Tool Solid Carbide

Product Description

The INTERNAL TOOL 24-1200 is a solid carbide interior grooving tool designed for cutting internal grooves in bores with a minimum hole diameter of 0.125 inches. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this tool delivers precise groove geometry in a right-hand cutting direction. It produces a full-radius groove 0.063 inches wide at a maximum depth of 0.25 inches. With an overall length of 2.5 inches and a 0.125-inch shank diameter, this compact tool is suited for small-bore grooving work on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install and run this tool in production and job-shop environments.

This tool is intended for interior grooving applications where bore diameter starts at 0.125 inches. The 0.25-inch projection and 0.25-inch maximum hole depth make it appropriate for shallow groove passes in small-diameter bores. The 1.75-inch shank length provides clearance for typical small-bore turning setups. It is well suited for applications requiring tight groove tolerances in hard materials, given its micrograin carbide construction. No undercut geometry is present, and no tool bit adjusting screw is included.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials
• Full-radius groove profile for consistent, repeatable groove geometry
• 0.063-inch groove width with 0.25-inch maximum depth per pass
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe rotation setups
• Compact 0.125-inch shank diameter fits small-bore toolholding systems
• Interior grooving geometry - no undercut, no adjusting screw

Compatibility

Designed for use in turning centers and CNC lathes equipped with toolholders accepting a 0.125-inch shank diameter for interior grooving operations.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and operated by machinists on CNC or manual lathes. Power down and lock out the spindle before seating or removing the tool from the toolholder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamped to the toolholder manufacturer's specified engagement length before running. Verify bore diameter meets the 0.125-inch minimum before attempting a grooving pass to avoid tool deflection or breakage.
