Cleveland Cobalt Tool Bit 3/16 Inch
This Cleveland Golf tool bit is a square cobalt blank designed for lathe work. It measures 3/16 inch in both width and height with an overall length of 2 1/2 inches. The non-beveled design suits right-hand and left-hand operations. It serves machinists and hobbyists who need a durable cutting blank.
Suited for general lathe turning and facing tasks
Machinists working with tough alloys will value the M42 cobalt composition. Builders who need a pre-ground cutting geometry or a specific bevel angle should look elsewhere. Users requiring larger tool blanks or indexable inserts will need a different product. The square profile limits use to standard tool holders.
Handles high-heat cutting in steel
The cobalt material resists wear and maintains hardness at elevated temperatures. It comfortably manages routine facing, turning, and boring operations on a manual or CNC lathe. The 3/16 inch cross-section restricts depth of cut and rigidity in heavy roughing passes. Very large diameter work or deep bores exceed the practical capacity of this blank.

Questions about this item
What type of lathe tool holder accepts a 3/16 in square cobalt blank?
The 3/16 in square shank fits standard tool holders designed for that cross-section; verify your holder’s pocket width matches before mounting.
Can this M42 cobalt bit be used with an older lathe running at lower spindle speeds?
M42 cobalt retains hardness at moderate temperatures, so it performs adequately at the reduced speeds common on older manual lathes.
How can I confirm the blank is correctly oriented for right-hand or left-hand turning after installation?
The non-beveled, symmetrical profile allows either orientation; set the tool on centre height and take a light facing cut to verify engagement.
