Value Collection 383-8632 TSE-10 Carbide Tool Bit 5/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 383-8632 is a single-point square shank boring tool bit built to industry standard TSE-10. It features a solid carbide tip graded C2, suited for general-purpose boring operations where consistent cutting performance and edge retention matter. The shank measures 5/8 inches in height and 5/8 inches in width, with an overall length of 3 inches. The neutral cutting direction and 1/32-inch nose radius make it appropriate for straight boring passes without directional bias. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians working with lathes and boring setups will find this tool bit a reliable production-grade option at a standard form factor.

This tool bit is designed for boring applications on manual and CNC lathes where a TSE-style square shank insert is the specified configuration. Its C2 carbide grade is well suited for machining cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and general-purpose work materials at moderate cutting speeds. It fits standard boring bar setups that accept a 5/8-inch square shank profile and is commonly used in job shop, maintenance, and light production machining environments.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip, C2 grade — suitable for cast iron and non-ferrous boring
• Neutral cutting direction for straight, non-handed boring passes
• 5/8 inch square shank profile matches TSE-10 industry standard
• 1/32 inch nose radius for controlled surface finish in boring operations
• 3 inch overall length fits standard lathe and boring bar toolholders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tool bit for boring setups requiring a TSE-10 industry standard, 5/8 inch square shank single-point configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists following standard tool-room practices. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before seating or adjusting the tool bit in the holder. Secure the shank properly in the toolholder to the specified clamping torque for that holder model — do not rely on hand-tightening alone. Verify tool height and centerline alignment before initiating a cut.
