Built to AR-7 industry standard geometry, it features a square shoulder turning profile with a C6 solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank. The shank measures 7\/16 inches in both height and width, and the overall length is 3 inches. The right-hand cutting direction suits standard spindle rotation on conventional lathes. Machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople rely on this style of tool bit for precision material removal in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit is suited for boring, chamfering, and turning operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The AR-7 style fits standard tool holders sized for 7\/16-inch square shanks. It is commonly used in manual lathe work and light CNC turning setups where interchangeable single-point tooling is preferred. The C6 carbide grade is appropriate for general-purpose turning on cast iron, steel, and similar workpieces at moderate cutting speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAR-7 industry standard geometry for compatibility with AR-style tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC6 solid carbide tip for wear resistance in general-purpose turning applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare shoulder turning profile supports boring, chamfering, and turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction for standard lathe spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/16 inch square shank fits common lathe tool post holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 3-inch overall length suits smaller lathe setups and tight clearance work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or new-installation tool bit for AR-style tool holders accepting a 7\/16-inch square shank.

Secure the shank in the tool post or tool holder to the manufacturer-specified clamping torque for that holder; do not overtighten set screws against the carbide tip area. Ensure the lathe is at a full stop and the spindle lock is engaged before changing or adjusting tooling. Inspect the carbide tip for chips or cracks before each use and replace if damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: AR-7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: AR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square Shoulder Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Boring, Chamfering, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 383-0046\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723529781554,"sku":"383-0046","price":18.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/53d9ef9a3e083a7901c89f4ebfad4bf6.jpg?v=1788605860","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-383-0046-ar-7-single-point-tool-bit-c6-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
