Built to Industry Standard BL-6 with a BL-style profile, it features a C2-grade solid carbide tip brazed to a steel shank measuring 3\/8 inches in height and 3\/8 inches in width. The overall length is 2.5 inches and the unit weighs 0.12 pounds. The 15-degree lead angle geometry suits a range of chip-load and entry conditions. This bit is used by machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople performing precision metal removal where left-hand cutting direction is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 383-1132 is suited for shop and production environments handling boring, chamfering, interrupted cuts, and general turning operations. The C2 carbide grade provides adequate hardness and wear resistance for cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and general-purpose steel at moderate cutting speeds. It fits standard tool holders and boring bars accepting 3\/8-inch shank tooling, making it a practical replacement or spare for existing setups without retooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBL-6 industry standard designation for consistent fit in compatible tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC2-grade solid carbide tip for wear resistance across cast iron, non-ferrous, and general steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15-degree lead angle geometry suited for boring, chamfering, interrupted cuts, and turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting direction for reverse-pass and specific workholding configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 2.5-inch overall length for use in tight boring setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch square shank fits standard BL-style tool holders without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or drop-in addition for tool holders and boring bars accepting BL-style 3\/8-inch shank single-point tool bits per the BL-6 industry standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe or machining center before seating or replacing the tool bit. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamped in the tool holder per the holder manufacturer's torque guidelines. Verify cutting direction is appropriate for the intended pass direction before energizing the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BL-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: BL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Bit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead Angle Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 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, Interrupted Cuts, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 383-1132\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701544419634,"sku":"383-1132","price":20.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ea4707d49ef4b13cb13e25de8ad1f813.jpg?v=1788401091","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-383-1132-bl-6-single-point-tool-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
