Micro 100 Brazed Tool Bit RC-500080
This Micro 100 brazed tool bit is a single-point cutting tool made with a carbide tip brazed to a zinc shank. It is designed for right-hand turning operations on a lathe or similar machine. The tool arrives new and ready for general-purpose metalworking tasks.
Machinists needing a ready-to-use right-hand bit
This tool suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a standard right-hand single-point bit for turning steel or other ferrous materials. It is not for operators who require indexable inserts, left-hand geometry, or a specific coating for high-speed finishing passes.
Carbide tip on zinc shank defines application
The carbide tip provides the hardness needed for cutting metal, while the zinc shank offers a standard mounting interface. This material combination determines the tool's wear resistance and the range of materials it can effectively machine.
Highlights

Questions about this item
How often will the carbide tip on this RC-500080 tool bit need regrinding?
The carbide tip can be reground multiple times before the braze joint requires replacement, extending the tool bit's usable life.
What is the first limitation when using this right-hand bit continuously in steel?
The 1/2 inch shank width determines the maximum depth of cut and rigidity before deflection becomes the limiting factor.
How much heat builds up in the zinc-coated shank during all-day machining?
The zinc coating helps dissipate heat from the shank, while the carbide tip manages cutting temperatures during sustained operation.
