    Use these tools to enlarge existing holes to precise diameters. All have an offset taper that provides additional clearance to prevent chips from clogging the hole.
    C2 Carbide—C2 carbide tips are abrasion resistant and less likely to chip or crack than C6 carbide when cutting aluminum, brass, and bronze.
    C6 Carbide—C6 carbide tips hold up better than C2 carbide when making cuts in steel.

    The long steel shank on these tools can reach farther inside the workpiece than standard boring tools and can be cut to length depending on the depth of the hole. Use them to enlarge existing holes to precise diameters.
    Tips are micrograin carbide, which outperform C2 and C6 carbide tips when cutting difficult-to-machine metal, such as stainless steel or titanium. They provide a good finish on most materials.
    Right-Hand Cutting Direction—Right-hand tools are for boring when the workpiece is rotating counterclockwise (toward the lathe operator).
    Left-Hand Cutting Direction—Left-hand tools are for boring when the workpiece is rotating clockwise (away from the lathe operator).

    Constructed of a carbide tip brazed onto a ground steel shank, these tools are more wear resistant than high-speed steel tools. Right-handed tools cut from right to left, left-handed tools cut from left to right, and neutral tools can cut in either direction.
    Lathe tool styles AR and AL perform along the length turning, facing, boring, and chamfering. They allow for a sharp 90° square shoulder. Lathe tool styles BR and BL perform along the length turning, facing, boring, and chamfering. They are suitable for roughing cuts, interrupted cuts, and cuts where a square shoulder is not required. Lathe tool style C perform along the length turning, facing, chamfering, and external grooving. Lathe tool style D perform along the length turning, facing, boring, chamfering, external grooving, and undercutting. Lathe tool style E are for external threading.
    C2 Carbide—C2 carbide tips are abrasion resistant and less likely to chip or crack than C6 carbide when cutting aluminum, brass, and bronze.
    C6 Carbide—C6 carbide tips hold up better than C2 carbide when making cuts in steel.
    Micrograin Carbide—Micrograin carbide tips outperform C2 and C6 tips when cutting metal that’s difficult to machine, such as stainless steel or titanium. They leave a good finish on most materials.

    Keep a variety of tools on hand to cut and shape workpieces. The tools in these sets come with carbide inserts installed. When one edge of the insert dulls, rotate to a fresh one. When all the edges are dull, you can replace the insert rather than the entire tool. Right-handed tools cut from right to left, left-handed tools cut from left to right, and neutral tools can cut in either direction. All sets come with uncoated C5 inserts.
    A Tool Bit—Styles AR and AL help you create a sharp 90° square shoulder.
    B Tool Bit—Styles BR and BL are used for roughing, interrupted cuts, and cuts where a square shoulder is not required.
    E Tool Bit—Style E are for external threading.
