Value Collection 383-6226 ER-8 Threading Tool Bit C6 Carbide

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 383-6226 is an ER-8 style single-point offset threading tool bit designed for precision threading and V-grooving operations on a lathe. The bit features a C6 solid carbide tip ground to a 60-degree included angle, making it suited for standard thread-form cutting as well as V-grooving to shoulder. The shank measures 0.5 inches in height and 0.5 inches in width, with an overall length of 3.5 inches. Cutting direction is right hand. This tool is used by machinists and tool-and-die technicians working on manual or CNC turning equipment where accurate thread profiles are required.

The 383-6226 is appropriate for threading and V-grooving applications on a lathe where a right-hand ER-8 style offset bit is specified. It is suited to both production and job-shop environments. The C6 carbide grade offers wear resistance appropriate for threading ferrous and non-ferrous materials at moderate cutting speeds. Typical users include machining shops, maintenance facilities, and trade apprentices working under licensed machinists who require a reliable, standard-geometry threading insert holder alternative.

Key Features

• ER-8 offset threading style for right-hand thread cutting and V-grooving to shoulder
• C6 solid carbide tip with 60-degree included angle for standard thread form geometry
• 0.5 inch by 0.5 inch shank cross-section fits common lathe tool holders
• 3.5 inch overall length provides clearance in typical turning setups
• Right-hand cutting direction for conventional lathe threading passes

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ER-8 style single-point threading tool bit compatible with lathe tool holders accepting a 0.5 inch by 0.5 inch shank cross-section.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the shank firmly in the tool holder to the correct center height before cutting. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before changing or adjusting any tool bit. Verify thread form geometry against the required thread specification before taking a finishing pass.
