Built from submicron carbide grade material, this tool delivers consistent performance in tight-tolerance bores. It features a 1\/4 inch shank diameter and an overall length of 2.5 inches, making it well suited for small-diameter internal grooving work. The right-hand cutting direction suits standard CNC and manual lathe setups. Machinists and tooling specialists working with retaining ring grooves in precision components rely on this style of tool for clean, repeatable groove geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grooving tool is used in machine shop and manufacturing environments where internal retaining ring grooves must be cut to precise dimensions. It is appropriate for both production and prototype work on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. The minimum hole diameter of 0.25 inches allows entry into small bores, while the maximum hole depth of 0.5 inches covers typical retaining ring groove applications. Submicron carbide construction supports use in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where edge retention and dimensional consistency are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid submicron carbide construction for extended edge life and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction for standard lathe and CNC turning setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.063 inch groove width sized for retaining ring groove profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore entry of 0.25 inches supports small-diameter internal grooving\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.060 inch projection provides clearance control in confined bore depths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 inch shank length offers secure clamping in standard toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit retaining ring grooving tool for use in standard 1\/4 inch shank toolholders on CNC lathes and manual turning equipment requiring internal groove cutting capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is installed and operated by qualified machinists familiar with turning center tooling and internal grooving operations. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool is securely clamped in the holder before engaging the workpiece. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines for tool overhang and feed rate selection. Do not exceed the rated maximum hole depth of 0.5 inches to avoid 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\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroove Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.063 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.0 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\u003eMinimum Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Hole Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.060 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\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: GT062Q-8A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52101278597426,"sku":"GT062Q-8A","price":59.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/db17b848fe185b551d6785f0fe37ae11.jpg?v=1790069665","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-gt062q-8a-retaining-ring-grooving-tool","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
