Scientific Cutting Tools B080300 Boring Bar Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS B080300 is a solid carbide boring bar designed for precision internal diameter machining in tight-bore applications. Built from submicron-grade carbide, this right-hand-cut boring bar handles a minimum bore diameter of 0.08 inches and a maximum bore depth of 0.3 inches. The 1/8-inch shank diameter and 1.5-inch overall length make it well suited for small-bore work where rigidity and dimensional accuracy are critical. Machinists and toolroom professionals rely on submicron carbide grade for its fine grain structure, which supports sharp cutting edges and consistent performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This boring bar is used in CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and precision boring operations where small internal diameters must be held to close tolerances. It is appropriate for production and prototype work in industries such as medical device manufacturing, aerospace, and general precision machining. The uncoated finish is suited for applications where a sharp, unaltered edge geometry is preferred, particularly in non-ferrous and abrasive materials.

Key Features

• Submicron solid carbide construction for edge sharpness and wear resistance
• Minimum bore diameter of 0.08 inches for tight small-bore applications
• Maximum bore depth of 0.3 inches
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe and boring setups
• Uncoated finish preserves sharp edge geometry for non-ferrous and precision cuts
• Compact 1/8-inch shank diameter fits standard small-bore toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/8-inch shank boring bar toolholders on CNC turning centers and manual lathes capable of supporting small-bore internal machining operations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines. Secure the shank firmly in the toolholder to the manufacturer-specified clamping method before operation. Ensure the machine is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or removing the tool. Avoid side loading beyond the tool geometry ratings to prevent chipping or breakage of the carbide tip.
