It accepts a minimum bore diameter of 0.160 inches with a maximum bore depth of 0.25 inches, making it well suited for tight-tolerance work in hardened or abrasive materials. The 3\/16-inch shank diameter and 2-inch overall length give it a compact, rigid profile that minimizes deflection during cut. Machinists working on CNC lathes or manual turning centers will find this bar reliable for finishing passes where bore geometry and surface finish are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis boring bar is intended for small-bore internal turning applications in precision machining environments, including production shops, toolrooms, and job shops. It performs in materials ranging from aluminum alloys to hardened steels and cast iron where a submicron carbide substrate provides wear resistance and edge retention. The Series B16 designation places it within a family of small-shank boring tools suited for Swiss-type, turret lathe, and small CNC turning setups where bore access is restricted and tool overhang must be minimized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSubmicron solid carbide construction for extended edge life in abrasive and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore diameter of 0.160 inches enables work in very small internal features\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum bore depth of 0.25 inches suitable for shallow precision bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction for standard lathe and turning center setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16-inch shank diameter fits common small-bore tool holders and turret stations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch overall length provides a compact, low-overhang profile for rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision boring bar for use in tool holders accepting a 3\/16-inch round shank, commonly found on small CNC turning centers, Swiss-type lathes, and turret lathes configured for small-bore internal operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA qualified machinist should install this boring bar in a clean, properly sized tool holder bore and secure it with appropriate clamping torque per the tool holder manufacturer guidelines. Ensure all machine power is locked out and the spindle is fully stopped before changing tooling. Carbide is brittle and should not be used as a pry or lever during setup. Verify shank runout after seating to maintain bore diameter accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoring Bar Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.160 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Bore Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (1\/4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Submicron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: B16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.063 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241601\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: SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: B160250A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52102682509618,"sku":"B160250A","price":44.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b3d74b8d44193f4432cf38c9140d3b1e_c8b9c668-7b61-4dae-81a1-36647ad8f41a.jpg?v=1790070650","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-b160250a-boring-bar-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
