Built from submicron-grade carbide and finished with an AlTiN+ coating, this bar delivers wear resistance and thermal stability at cutting speeds where standard carbide grades fall short. The right-hand cutting geometry suits the majority of CNC lathe and boring machine setups running conventional spindle rotation. The 0.25-inch shank diameter and 2.5-inch overall length make this a compact, rigid tool suited for small-bore work starting at a 0.18-inch minimum bore diameter with a maximum bore depth of 0.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis boring bar is intended for use in machine shops, tool rooms, and production environments where small-diameter internal bores require tight tolerances and consistent surface finish. Typical applications include bore finishing on small hydraulic components, precision housings, and instrument-grade parts. The AlTiN+ coating extends tool life in hard materials and dry or semi-dry cutting conditions. A licensed machinist or CNC programmer will typically set up and qualify this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubmicron solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention in small-bore applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN+ finish coating provides thermal and oxidation resistance at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction compatible with standard CNC lathe and boring machine spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.18-inch minimum bore diameter enables access to tight internal features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.25-inch shank diameter fits common ER and straight-bore toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 2.5-inch overall length reduces overhang and supports bore straightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC lathes and boring machines accepting a 0.25-inch straight shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or adjusting the tool in the holder. Verify shank runout with a dial indicator after clamping and before taking a cut. Do not exceed the maximum bore depth of 0.5 inches, as excessive overhang beyond the rated depth can cause chatter and tool deflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoring Bar Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Bore Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\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\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: B180500A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972208623922,"sku":"B180500A","price":48.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ca2a3684517847467c09053b287bcca3.jpg?v=1789964510","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-b180500a-boring-bar-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
