    Carbide-Tipped Turning Lathe Tools

    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.

    Style D,

    Neutral

    Style D tools are for light general purpose machining. Their triangular nose can also be used for grooving and undercutting.
    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 carbide tips when cutting difficult-to-machine metal, such as stainless steel or titanium. They provide a good finish on most materials.

    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.
