It features a 5\/16 inch shank diameter and a 0.038 inch groove width, making it well suited for precision groove work in small-diameter bores. With an overall length of 2.5 inches and a 0.1 inch projection, the tool provides controlled reach into the workpiece. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this tool in CNC lathes, manual lathes, or boring setups where a dedicated retaining ring groove profile is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grooving tool is intended for internal retaining ring groove applications in bores with a minimum hole diameter of 0.3125 inches. It accommodates a maximum hole depth of 0.75 inches, making it suitable for shallow-bore grooves in precision components. Typical applications include machining snap ring grooves in hydraulic cylinders, actuators, housings, and mechanical assemblies across industrial and manufacturing environments. The solid carbide construction supports use in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where edge retention and dimensional accuracy are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.038 inch groove width for standard retaining ring profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore entry of 0.3125 inches suits small-diameter internal grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum hole depth of 0.75 inches for shallow-bore retaining ring applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.1 inch projection provides controlled cutting reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch shank diameter for compatibility with standard toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style grooving tool for use in standard 5\/16 inch bore-type toolholders on CNC and manual lathes configured for internal retaining ring groove operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool should be installed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with lathe tooling setup. Ensure the machine is fully stopped and de-energized before securing or changing tooling. Use a properly sized toolholder that matches the 5\/16 inch shank diameter and verify projection length before engaging the cut. Do not exceed the maximum hole depth rating of 0.75 inches to avoid tool deflection or breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.038 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Hole Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrooving Tool Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Retaining Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: RRC3-038-750-312\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MICRO 100","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52106687840562,"sku":"RRC3-038-750-312","price":94.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b6495168f981929d0eef113bfd187777.jpg?v=1790073674","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/micro-100-rrc3-038-750-312-retaining-ring-grooving-tool","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
