Value Collection 383-3062 Single-point Tool Bit D-10 C2 Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 383-3062 is a single-point tool bit designed for precision turning and chamfering operations on metal lathes and similar machine tools. Built to Industry Standard D-10 with a D-style profile and pointed nose geometry, this tool bit features a solid carbide tip rated at C2 grade, offering strong wear resistance for general-purpose cutting applications. The shank measures 5/8 inches in height and 5/8 inches in width, with a neutral cutting direction and an 80-degree included angle. Overall length is 4 inches. It is typically installed and set up by machinists and toolroom technicians working on manual or CNC lathes.

This tool bit is suited for chamfering and pointed-nose cutting operations in production and job-shop environments. The neutral cutting direction makes it adaptable for both right-hand and left-hand applications depending on setup. The C2 solid carbide tip grade performs well on cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and general steel at moderate cutting speeds. It is a standard replacement or supplemental tool bit for shops maintaining lathe tooling inventory to Industry Standard D-10 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists using a tool post or quick-change tool holder rated for 5/8 inch square shank inserts.
