Scientific Cutting Tools B060200 Boring Bar Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS B060200 is a submicron solid carbide boring bar designed for precision internal boring operations on small-diameter bores. It accepts a minimum bore diameter of 0.06 inches and reaches a maximum bore depth of 13/64 inches (0.200 inches), making it well suited for tight-tolerance work in compact bore geometries. The 1/8-inch shank diameter keeps the tooling footprint small, and the 1-1/2-inch overall length fits standard small-bore toolholders. This bar is uncoated, which supports consistent performance with a wide range of cutting fluids and workpiece materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this bar when fine bore sizing or finish boring is required in close-quarter applications.

This boring bar is intended for use in CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and precision boring setups where small internal diameters must be held to tight tolerances. The right-hand cutting direction suits standard spindle rotation in the majority of conventional setups. Applications include finish boring of hydraulic valve bodies, instrument housings, medical components, and other small-bore precision parts where submicron carbide grade material provides the rigidity needed to minimize deflection and chatter.

Key Features

• Submicron solid carbide construction provides high rigidity and resistance to deflection in small-bore applications
• Minimum bore diameter of 0.06 inches enables access to very small internal features
• Maximum bore depth of 13/64 inches (0.200 inches) suits shallow precision bore requirements
• 1/8-inch shank diameter fits compact toolholders and turret stations
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and supports broad cutting-fluid compatibility
• Right-hand cutting direction matches standard spindle rotation for straightforward setup

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit boring bar for toolholders and boring systems accepting a 1/8-inch round shank with right-hand cutting geometry.

Installation Notes

A qualified machinist should install this boring bar following the toolholder manufacturer's clamping specifications. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the bar. Ensure the shank seating surface and toolholder bore are clean and free of chips before clamping. Do not exceed the maximum bore depth rating, as extended reach beyond the rated depth increases deflection risk and can damage the carbide bar.
