It features a solid carbide tip rated to C2 grade, offering strong wear resistance and edge retention for general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous cutting. The shank measures 3\/4 inches in height and 3\/4 inches in width, with an overall length of 4.5 inches. The right-hand cutting direction makes it compatible with standard lathe setups where the tool feeds from right to left. This bit is suited for machinists and tool-and-die professionals working in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 383-0072 is designed for use in boring, chamfering, and turning operations. Its AR-12 industry standard designation makes it a direct fit for tool holders dimensioned to that standard. The C2 carbide grade is well-suited for cutting cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials at moderate cutting speeds. It installs in a standard square-shank tool post or boring bar holder and is appropriate for both manual and CNC lathe applications requiring precise, repeatable cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAR-12 industry standard designation for consistent holder fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC2 grade solid carbide tip for wear resistance on general-purpose materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction for standard lathe feed orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare shoulder turning geometry supports boring, chamfering, and turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch by 3\/4 inch shank provides rigid support in compatible tool posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5 inch overall length suits standard lathe clearance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tool bit for square-shank tool holders and boring bar setups dimensioned to the AR-12 industry standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician.
