With a 3\/8-inch shank diameter and an overall length of 2.5 inches, this right-hand cutting tool delivers consistent groove geometry in bores as small as 0.375 inches in diameter. The submicron carbide grade provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for tight-tolerance work in steel, aluminum, and similar materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this tool where retaining ring grooves must be cut to exact width and depth specifications. The 0.063-inch groove width and 0.110-inch projection allow controlled, repeatable cuts in confined bore geometries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grooving tool is suited for CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and boring operations where internal retaining ring grooves are required. The right-hand cutting direction and 1.75-inch shank length make it compatible with standard toolholders used in production and job-shop environments. Maximum hole depth capacity is 0.75 inches, making it appropriate for through-bores and shallow blind bores in small-diameter workpieces. It is commonly used in aerospace, automotive, hydraulic component, and general precision machining shops that require reliable, repeatable internal groove profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid submicron carbide construction for extended tool life and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.063-inch groove width for retaining ring seat machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction for standard CNC and manual lathe setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore entry diameter of 0.375 inches enables work in small-diameter holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.110-inch projection supports accurate depth control without excessive overhang\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch overall length with 1.75-inch shank for secure toolholder engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or production-use retaining ring grooving tool for standard 3\/8-inch bore toolholders used in CNC turning and manual lathe applications requiring internal groove cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is installed and operated by qualified machinists following standard shop safety procedures. Secure the shank fully in the toolholder to the manufacturer-recommended engagement depth before running the spindle. Verify workpiece setup and bore diameter minimums before engaging the tool to avoid contact with bore walls outside the intended groove location. Never exceed the stated maximum hole depth of 0.75 inches to prevent tool deflection or breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrooving Tool Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Retaining Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0630 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Hole Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1100 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5000 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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pounds\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: GT062-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52037181735218,"sku":"GT062-12","price":78.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9abbd73db895b4617cb67e2334042d08.jpg?v=1790024415","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-gt062-12-retaining-ring-grooving-tool","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
