Micro 100 ER-6 External Threading Tool Brazed Carbide 3/8 in

Product Description

The MICRO 100 ER-6 is a single point external threading tool built for precision thread-cutting on lathes and CNC turning centers. Constructed from brazed solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required for consistent thread profiles in steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials. The tool features a 60-degree profile angle, making it suitable for standard unified and metric thread forms. With a 3/8 inch shank diameter and a 2.5 inch overall length, it fits a range of tool holders commonly used in production and job-shop turning operations. The bright, uncoated finish maintains close dimensional tolerances without the added thickness of a coating layer.

This threading tool is designed for external threading applications on manual lathes and CNC turning equipment. It is suited for job shops, production facilities, and toolroom operations where accurate thread form geometry is required on turned components. The compact 2.5 inch OAL makes it appropriate for operations where tool overhang or clearance is a factor. Machinists and CNC operators handling external thread profiles on a variety of part diameters will find this tool a practical fit for standard 60-degree thread-form work.

Key Features

• Brazed solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in threading applications
• 60-degree profile angle suitable for unified and metric external thread forms
• 3/8 inch shank diameter compatible with standard turning tool holders
• 2.5 inch overall length for versatile setup in a range of turning operations
• Bright uncoated finish preserves dimensional accuracy without coating buildup
• No coolant-through design - suited for conventional flood or dry cutting setups

Compatibility

Designed as a single point external threading tool for use in manual and CNC lathes and turning centers accepting a 3/8 inch shank tool holder.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank firmly in the tool holder and verify center height alignment before cutting to maintain accurate thread form geometry. Inspect the brazed carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use and do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the workpiece material. Power down and lock out the machine before changing or adjusting tooling per applicable shop safety procedures.
