Built to industry standard FL-8, it features a C6 solid carbide tip brazed to an offset end cutting geometry for aggressive material removal close to chuck jaws and shoulders. The shank measures 0.5 inches in both height and width, with an overall length of 3.5 inches. The 1\/32-inch nose radius provides a controlled finish on the workpiece. Cutting direction is left hand. This tool bit is suited for machinists and tool-and-die professionals who need reliable carbide-tipped tooling for production or job-shop turning work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis FL-style offset end cutting tool bit is used in manual and CNC engine lathes for turning and facing operations where the tool must work close to a chuck jaw or cut up to a shoulder. The left-hand cutting direction makes it appropriate for specific setups where conventional right-hand tooling cannot reach the workpiece geometry. It seats in a standard 0.5-inch square tool holder or turret block.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustry standard FL-8 designation for consistent toolholder fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC6 solid carbide tip for extended tool life on ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffset end cutting geometry allows turning and facing to a shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting direction for specialized lathe setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/32-inch nose radius for controlled surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch square shank fits standard tool holders without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tool bit for standard 0.5-inch square shank tool holders and turret blocks on manual and CNC engine lathes accepting FL-style single-point tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before seating or replacing any tool bit. Secure the shank firmly in the tool holder with set screws to prevent movement under cutting load.
