Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance suited to demanding cutting conditions. The tool features a 0.05 inch groove width, making it appropriate for narrow-groove work where dimensional accuracy is critical. With an overall length of 1.15 inches (29.21 mm), this is a compact tooling solution handled by machinists and toolroom professionals working on CNC lathes, screw machines, and manual turning equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis grooving tool is used in production and job-shop machining environments where tight-tolerance grooving, parting, or recessing operations are required. Its solid carbide material makes it well suited for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals where tool rigidity and edge retention matter. It is appropriate for use in both high-volume production runs and precision one-off machining tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.05 inch groove width for narrow-groove and precision recessing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1.15 inches (29.21 mm) for compact toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-piece solid form eliminates insert seating variability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuited for CNC and manual turning applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style grooving tool for use in standard toolholders and grooving systems compatible with solid carbide shank tooling of this size class. Verify bore and shank dimensions against your toolholder specifications before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with turning tool protocols. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before mounting or adjusting the tool. Confirm proper overhang and tool centerline height per your machine and toolholder manufacturer guidelines. Avoid side-loading or prying forces on the carbide shank, as solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to chipping under impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.15 inches (29.21 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1256522\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739488125234,"sku":"1256522","price":164.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/43f1f97fe40b52327f6a179b7dd7e99e.jpg?v=1788815148","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1256522-solid-carbide-grooving-tool","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
