Built to Industry Standard Number AL-4, this left-hand cutting tool features a C2-grade solid carbide tip brazed to a square-shank body measuring 1\/4 inch in height and 1\/4 inch in width, with an overall length of 2 inches. The carbide tip grade C2 is suited for general-purpose cutting of cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople are the primary installers and operators of this style of tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit is used in boring, chamfering, and turning applications on manual engine lathes and similar turning centers. The left-hand cutting direction means the tool advances from left to right relative to the workpiece, making it appropriate for facing cuts toward a shoulder or for operations where right-hand tooling cannot reach. Its compact 2-inch overall length suits toolpost holders and boring bars configured for 1\/4-inch shank inserts in both light production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC2-grade solid carbide tip for wear resistance in general-purpose turning and boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting direction for shoulder-approach and reverse-feed operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAL-4 industry standard designation ensures dimensional interchangeability with AL-series toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare shank at 1\/4 inch by 1\/4 inch fits standard small-bore toolpost blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch overall length for compact toolpost and boring bar setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for boring, chamfering, and turning operations on a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitute for AL-4 industry-standard single-point tool bits used in 1\/4-inch shank toolpost holders and boring bar assemblies on manual engine lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Secure the shank firmly in the toolpost or holder before engaging the workpiece, and verify tool height alignment to centerline before taking a cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or crazing before each use and replace the tool bit if the cutting edge is compromised. Always stop the spindle and isolate machine power before adjusting tooling in the toolpost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: AL-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: AL\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: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\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: C2\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: 0.035 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\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: 383-0112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51706179518770,"sku":"383-0112","price":18.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b014fbd7c0848884817b1260ce9ccc7f.jpg?v=1788433130","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-383-0112-single-point-tool-bit-al-4","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
