Micro 100 T-111 Parallel Cutoff Blade Brazed Solid Carbide

Product Description

The MICRO 100 T-111 is a parallel-style cutoff blade designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Manufactured from brazed solid carbide with an uncoated finish, it delivers consistent edge geometry and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous material applications. The blade measures 0.125 inches wide, 0.875 inches high, and 6 inches in overall length, making it a standard-size option for shops running repetitive cutoff work. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this blade directly into compatible cutoff blade holders as part of a toolpost or quick-change setup.

The T-111 is suited for production turning environments where a parallel blade profile is required for straight plunge cuts and parting operations. Its brazed solid carbide construction supports higher cutting speeds compared to high-speed steel alternatives, and the uncoated surface finish is appropriate for applications where coatings are not needed or where re-grinding is anticipated. The 6-inch length provides adequate shank engagement in standard cutoff blade holders used on benchtop and full-size lathes in both job shop and production settings.

Key Features

• Parallel blade style for straight plunge and parting cuts
• Brazed solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance
• Uncoated finish suitable for regrinding or use without coating requirements
• 0.125-inch width minimizes material loss at the cut
• 6-inch overall length fits standard cutoff blade holder toolpost setups
• 0.875-inch height provides rigidity and resistance to deflection under load

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style parallel cutoff blade for use in standard cutoff blade holders compatible with the T-111 blade profile on manual and CNC turning machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool-and-die technicians. Ensure the lathe spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before seating or adjusting the blade in the holder. Secure the blade per the holder manufacturer's clamping specification and confirm the cutting edge is set on center with the workpiece centerline before engaging the cut. Inspect the brazed joint and cutting edge for cracks or chips prior to each use.
