Micro 100 T-106 Cutoff Blade Brazed Solid Carbide

Product Description

The MICRO 100 T-106 is a parallel-style cutoff blade manufactured from brazed solid carbide and designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. The blade measures 0.156 inches wide, 0.6875 inches high, and 5 inches in overall length, giving it a rigid cross-section suited for controlled depth-of-cut work. The uncoated carbide construction provides consistent edge sharpness and dimensional stability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. This tool is installed and maintained by machinists and CNC operators working in production and job-shop environments.

The T-106 is appropriate for parting-off stock and cutting narrow grooves in bar work on lathes equipped with standard tool holders that accept blade-style inserts. Its parallel profile keeps the cutting edge geometry consistent from top to bottom, making it a practical choice for repetitive cutoff operations where blade redressing or repositioning is required. The 5-inch length accommodates deeper tool-post reach or provides additional regrind life over shorter blade formats.

Key Features

• Parallel blade style maintains uniform width from tip to shank for consistent cutoff geometry
• Brazed solid carbide construction delivers hardness and wear resistance for extended tool life
• Uncoated finish allows straightforward inspection of edge condition and simplifies regrinding
• 0.156 inch blade width minimizes material loss during parting operations
• 5-inch overall length provides extended reach and additional regrind stock

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cutoff blade for use in standard blade-style tool holders and parting blade holders that accept parallel-profile carbide blades of equivalent width and height dimensions.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the lathe de-energized before seating or adjusting the blade in the holder. The blade should be clamped securely per the tool-holder manufacturer's torque and clamping guidance to prevent chatter or blade shift during the cut. Inspect the brazed joint and cutting edge for integrity before returning the tool to service.
