Value Collection 383-1062 Single-point Tool Bit BR-10

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 383-1062 is a single-point tool bit designed for lead angle turning operations on metal lathes and boring applications. Built to BR-10 industry standard, it features a C2-grade solid carbide tip brazed to a square shank measuring 5/8 inches in height and 5/8 inches in width, with a 4-inch overall length. The right-hand cutting direction and 15-degree lead angle make it suited for standard turning passes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this bit in standard boring bars and lathe tool holders sized for the 5/8-inch shank profile.

This tool bit is used in manual and CNC lathe setups for boring, chamfering, interrupted cuts, and general turning. The C2 carbide grade offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness appropriate for medium-duty cutting on cast iron, steel, and similar materials. It fits production, job shop, and maintenance machining environments where a reliable, standardized BR-series bit is required. Sold as a single unit, it is a direct replacement or stock item for shops that maintain BR-10 tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tool room technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe or machining center before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamping screws are tightened securely before resuming cuts. Inspect the carbide tip for chipping or wear before each use, especially after interrupted-cut applications.
