Each bit measures 3\/8 inch wide and is manufactured to Grade C5 carbide, a general-purpose tungsten carbide grade well suited for turning cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials at moderate to high cutting speeds. The set covers seven standard tool bit styles — AL, AR, BL, BR, C, D, and E — providing the range of geometries needed to handle facing, turning, boring, and threading setups without sourcing individual bits. The complete set weighs 3.5 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set is intended for use in manual lathes, turret lathes, and similar machine tool setups found in job shops, maintenance facilities, and trade training environments. The 3\/8-inch shank size fits standard tool holders and quick-change posts sized for that width. The variety of included styles — left-hand, right-hand, and neutral geometries — makes this set practical for machinists and tool-and-die technicians who need a ready supply of ground carbide blanks or pre-formed bits across common cutting applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e38-piece set covering AL, AR, BL, BR, C, D, and E tool bit styles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade C5 carbide construction for general-purpose cutting on cast iron and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch wide bit shank fits standard tool holders for that size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMultiple geometries included — left-hand, right-hand, and neutral — in a single set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSet weight of 3.5 pounds indicates solid, full-size carbide stock throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard tool holders and quick-change toolpost systems sized for 3\/8-inch tool bits on manual and turret lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarbide tool bits are installed by machinists using appropriate tool holders torqued to the holder manufacturer's specification — do not use impact methods to seat bits. Ensure the lathe is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before changing or setting tool bits. Carbide is brittle and should not be subjected to interrupted cuts or impact loads beyond the rated application. Inspect each bit for chipping or cracking before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePiece Count\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C5 Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Styles\u003c\/strong\u003e: AL, AR, BL, BR, C, D, E\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CTBS-38\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700717453618,"sku":"CTBS-38","price":376.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/821ca35c2160a33e92078f3f9da5ba1d.jpg?v=1788394286","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ctbs-38-carbide-tool-bit-set-38-pc-c5","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
