Value Collection 383-6246 ER-10 Single-point Threading Tool Bit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 383-6246 is an ER-10 style single-point offset threading tool bit designed for precision threading and V-grooving operations on a lathe or threading machine. Built with a solid carbide tip rated C6, this bit delivers the hardness and edge retention required for production threading in steel, cast iron, and similar materials. The 60-degree included angle makes it suited for standard unified and metric thread forms. With a 5/8 inch shank height and 5/8 inch shank width, it seats securely in standard toolholders. Cutting direction is right hand. Overall length is 4 inches. Machinists and tool-room technicians are the primary users of this bit.

This tool bit is configured for offset threading and V-grooving applications, including threading to a shoulder where clearance is limited. The ER-10 designation identifies the thread form geometry, making it appropriate for jobs requiring a 60-degree thread profile. It is suited for use in manual engine lathes, turret lathes, and CNC turning centers with a compatible toolholder accepting a 5/8 inch shank. Right-hand cutting direction means the tool feeds from right to left along the workpiece in standard lathe orientation.

Key Features

• ER-10 offset threading style with 60-degree included angle for standard thread forms
• Solid carbide C6 tip grade for hardness and wear resistance in threading applications
• 5/8 inch shank height and 5/8 inch shank width for secure toolholder seating
• 4 inch overall length for reach in typical lathe setups
• Right-hand cutting direction for conventional left-to-right feed threading
• Capable of threading to a shoulder and V-grooving applications

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or direct-use single-point threading tool bit for toolholders and lathe tool posts accepting a 5/8 inch square shank, used in threading and V-grooving operations requiring an ER-10 geometry.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the lathe or turning center before seating or removing the tool bit. Secure the bit firmly in the toolholder to the tool post manufacturer's recommended clamping procedure before initiating a cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chips or cracks before each use, as damaged carbide can cause thread-form errors or tool failure.
