Micro 100 Brazed Tool Bit AL-5
This left-hand brazed tool bit is designed for machinists and metalworkers who need a dedicated left-hand cutting orientation. The carbide tip is brazed to a steel shank, providing a rigid single-point tool for turning operations. It suits workshops that require a specific left-hand geometry for facing or boring tasks. The tool arrives new and ready for immediate use in the shop.
Carbide-tipped steel with 5/16 inch shank
The carbide tip offers hardness and wear resistance for cutting aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. The 5/16 inch shank width fits standard tool holders, giving a secure clamping surface. The steel body provides the necessary toughness to absorb cutting forces without fracturing. Headroom is limited by the brazed joint; heavy interrupted cuts or excessive overhang will risk tip failure.
Brazed construction for everyday machining
The brazed joint creates a permanent bond between the carbide tip and steel shank, eliminating the need for replaceable inserts or separate clamping hardware. This simplifies tool setup and reduces the number of spare parts a shop must stock. The compact 2-1/4 inch overall length allows access in tight work envelopes where longer tooling cannot reach. The left-hand orientation is fixed, so the bit cannot be used for right-hand cuts.

Questions about this item
Will the 5/16 in. shank fit the tool holders I already use?
The shank measures 5/16 in. wide, so it fits any holder that accepts that size.
How can I confirm the left-hand carbide tip is cutting correctly after installation?
The tool should produce a clean cut when feeding from right to left on the workpiece.
Does the package include any holders or only the brazed tool bit itself?
Only the single-point tool bit is supplied; holders must be purchased separately.
