Built from solid carbide, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed for consistent, repeatable cuts in steel, stainless, aluminum, and similar materials. The shank measures 3\/8 inch in height and 3\/8 inch in width, with an overall length of 3 inches. The tip measures 0.330 inches in length and 0.096 inches in width. Neutral cutting direction makes it suitable for straight-in grooving applications. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this bit in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit fits standard GS-style grooving applications on manual and CNC lathes. It is well suited for external grooving, parting operations, and undercut work where a narrow, precise tip width is required. The 3\/8 x 3\/8 inch shank fits common tool holders designed for that shank size. Typical applications include groove-to-depth work on round stock in both prototype and production runs. The solid carbide construction handles interrupted cuts and harder workpiece materials better than high-speed steel alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide tip for superior hardness and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral cutting direction for straight-in grooving\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 x 3\/8 inch shank fits standard GS-style tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.096 inch tip width enables narrow, precise groove geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 inch overall length suits common lathe tool post setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGS-style profile for compatibility with matching boring bar and holder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tool bit for GS-style grooving tool holders accepting a 3\/8 x 3\/8 inch shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Before mounting, ensure the lathe or turning center is fully powered down and the spindle is locked. Secure the tool bit firmly in a matched GS-style holder, confirming the shank seats fully without overhang beyond accepted practice. Verify tip alignment with the workpiece centerline before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: GS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grooving\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.330 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.096 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.106 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MICRO 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GS-096002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MICRO 100","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972039180594,"sku":"GS-096002","price":68.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dacbdae9219d215ab4f3f479e50afc40.jpg?v=1789961636","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/micro-100-gs-096002-grooving-tool-bit-3-8-shank-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
