Value Collection 375-1832 Boring Bar C2 Carbide-tipped

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 375-1832 is a right-hand carbide-tipped boring bar designed for internal diameter boring operations on a lathe or boring mill. The insert-style construction uses a C2 carbide-tipped cutting edge, which handles general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous material removal at moderate cutting speeds. With a 1 inch shank diameter and an overall length of 6.5 inches, the bar seats securely in standard tool holders and provides enough reach for deep-bore applications. Minimum bore diameter is 0.875 inches and maximum bore depth is 4.5 inches, making this bar suitable for a broad range of common bore sizes encountered in production and maintenance machining environments.

This boring bar is used in manual and CNC lathe setups where through-holes or blind bores need to be brought to a finished diameter. Typical applications include bearing seat preparation, bushing bore finishing, and bore cleanup on castings or weldments. The right-hand cutting direction means the bar cuts toward the headstock in a standard lathe orientation. It is appropriate for job shops, maintenance departments, and production floors working with steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials.

Key Features

• C2 carbide-tipped cutting edge for general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous boring
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe orientation
• 0.875 inch minimum bore diameter accommodates tight bore requirements
• 4.5 inch maximum bore depth for deep-reach applications
• 1 inch shank diameter seats in standard tool holders without adapters
• 6.5 inch overall length provides rigidity while maintaining reach

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit boring bar for lathes and boring mills accepting a 1 inch shank, where a right-hand carbide-tipped tool is required for internal bore operations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the shank in a boring bar holder or tool post to the full recommended engagement depth to minimize overhang and reduce chatter. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before setting or adjusting the tool. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines for tool clearance and feed-rate selection when using carbide-tipped tooling.
