Value Collection 375-1862 Boring Bar C2 Carbide-tipped

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 375-1862 is a right-hand carbide-tipped boring bar designed for internal boring operations on lathes and boring mills. It accepts a minimum bore diameter of 1.5 inches and reaches a maximum bore depth of 6.25 inches, making it suitable for through and blind-bore work on medium to large workpieces. The 1-inch shank diameter provides rigid clamping in standard tool holders, and the C2 carbide tip grade delivers reliable performance on cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and general-purpose steel. Overall length is 8.25 inches. The bar ships as a single unit and is used by machinists and toolroom professionals in production and job-shop environments.

This boring bar is well suited for manual and CNC lathe applications where consistent bore geometry and surface finish are required. It covers a wide depth range without tool change, reducing setup time on stepped bores or deep features. Typical applications include enlarging existing holes, correcting bore location, and finishing bored diameters to close tolerance in medium-duty cutting conditions.

Key Features

• C2 carbide-tipped insert for durability on cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, and general-purpose steel
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard lathe spindle rotation
• 1.5-inch minimum bore diameter accommodates medium to large bore work
• 6.25-inch maximum bore depth enables deep-bore operations without tool change
• 1-inch shank diameter fits standard boring bar holders and tool posts
• 8.25-inch overall length provides reach while maintaining shank engagement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit boring bar for manual and CNC lathes and boring mills equipped with 1-inch boring bar holders or equivalent tool-post adapters.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the boring bar. Secure the 1-inch shank with adequate overhang control to minimize chatter and deflection, following the tool holder manufacturer's clamping torque guidelines. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use and replace as needed to maintain bore accuracy and surface finish.
