The AL-style tool shape has a 0-degree\nside cutting angle for square shoulder cuts and a left-hand cutting direction\nfor left-to-right feed. The tool has a positive, 6-degree rake angle that\nprovides a sharp edge for making continuous cuts. The tool has a Kennametal\nK68 grade uncoated carbide tip, which provides good resistance to wear for\ngeneral-purpose machining on cast iron and nonferrous materials. Carbide is\nharder than high-speed or cobalt steel, making it more wear resistant at high\nspeeds and providing longer tool life. The tip is brazed to a square steel\nshank that fits square toolholders. Brazed tools, often called single-point\nbrazed carbide-tipped tools, are used for metal shaping on lathes or screw\nmachines. These single-point tools have a cutting edge at one end that is a\ncarbide tip brazed to a steel shaft. They come in multiple geometry styles for\ncutting different shapes and are identified by a lettering standard that\nconforms to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B212.1\nspecifications. The tool has a side cutting edge and end cutting edge, with\nthe tool shape style defining which cutting edge is principal and auxiliary.\nBrazed tools are available in three hand options: right, left, and neutral. A\nright-hand tool has its principal cutting edge on the right side of the tool\nto feed into the workpiece from right to left, a left-hand tool feeds into the\nworkpiece from left to right, and a neutral-hand tool will cut either left to\nright or right to left. The side cutting and end cutting edge angles, in\ncombination with the angle at which the tool is positioned in relation to the\nworkpiece (also called the lead angle), influence the tool's cutting shape and\naction. Rake angles are the degree of inclination of the face toward or away\nfrom the cutting edge. They may be positive for sharp, continuous cuts,\nnegative for heavy, interrupted cuts, or neutral for a true 90-degree cut. The\ntip, or nose, of the tool performs the finish cut on the workpiece. In\ngeneral, a larger tip radius will produce a better surface finish and permit a\nfaster feed rate than a smaller tip radius. American Carbide Tool manufactures\nstandard single-point brazed carbide-tipped tools, and precision ground\ncutting tools and inserts. The company, founded in 1953, is headquartered in\nCanton, OH.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eAL-style tool shape has a 0-degree side cutting angle for straight turning, facing, or boring to a square shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eKennametal K68 grade uncoated carbide tip for general-purpose machining of cast iron and nonferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eLeft-hand cutting direction for left-to-right feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle provides a sharp edge for making continuous cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSquare steel shank fits square toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\n\n\n","published_at":"2021-05-31T17:22:29+10:00","created_at":"2021-05-31T17:22:29+10:00","vendor":"American Carbide Tool","type":"Brazed Tools","tags":["deletenow","leo108"],"price":11800,"price_min":11800,"price_max":11800,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":40127765840027,"title":"AL 7","option1":"AL 7","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"B0026GJ5GQ","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"American Carbide Tool Carbide-Tipped Tool Bit for Straight Turning, Left Hand, K68 Grade, 0.4375\" Square Shank, AL 7 Size - AL 7","public_title":"AL 7","options":["AL 7"],"price":11800,"weight":454,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":null,"barcode":"726761500954","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/B0026GJ5GQ.jpg?v=1651264214","\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/711G5pOnTuL.jpg?v=1623945539","\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71MDMnRqqRL.jpg?v=1623945540"],"featured_image":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/B0026GJ5GQ.jpg?v=1651264214","options":["Size"],"media":[{"alt":"American Carbide Tool Carbide-Tipped Tool Bit for Straight Turning, Left Hand, K68 Grade, 0.4375\" Square Shank, AL 7 Size - LeoForward Australia","id":29656604016877,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.028,"height":1341,"width":1379,"src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/B0026GJ5GQ.jpg?v=1651264214"},"aspect_ratio":1.028,"height":1341,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/B0026GJ5GQ.jpg?v=1651264214","width":1379},{"alt":"American Carbide Tool Carbide-Tipped Tool Bit for Straight Turning, Left Hand, K68 Grade, 0.4375\" Square Shank, AL 7 Size - LeoForward Australia","id":23247598780571,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.373,"height":1526,"width":569,"src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/711G5pOnTuL.jpg?v=1623945539"},"aspect_ratio":0.373,"height":1526,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/711G5pOnTuL.jpg?v=1623945539","width":569},{"alt":"American Carbide Tool Carbide-Tipped Tool Bit for Straight Turning, Left Hand, K68 Grade, 0.4375\" Square Shank, AL 7 Size - LeoForward Australia","id":23247598813339,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.361,"height":1349,"width":487,"src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71MDMnRqqRL.jpg?v=1623945540"},"aspect_ratio":0.361,"height":1349,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/leoforward.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71MDMnRqqRL.jpg?v=1623945540","width":487}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch3\u003eAmerican Carbide Tool Carbide-Tipped Tool Bit for Straight Turning, Left Hand, K68 Grade, 0.4375\" Square Shank, AL 7 Size\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"b\"\u003eSize:AL 7 The American Carbide Tool AL-style K68 grade carbide-tipped brazed\ntool bit has a left-hand cutting direction and a 0-degree side cutting angle\nfor general-purpose straight turning, facing, or boring to a square shoulder\non cast iron and nonferrous materials.
