For the time being, we do not have the poly v groove cutting inserts in stock. Sorry.
It's for a hobby lathe with a small engine. However, it is not worth the money. It is completely ineffective. The first time we used them, they all broke. We're very happy with our other Accusize products, so this is a huge disappointment.
Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience this has caused. In reality, the shank is one inch long. Please contact us if you have any additional questions.

We usually use an Aloris indexable cutoff blade at our machine shop, but the price of those has gotten out of hand, so we decided to give this a try. FORGET ABOUT IT! It broke on the first part, when the blade was ripped out of the holder by simply parting mild steel tubing, causing it to be damaged to the point where another blade would not fit into it. It was a waste of money.
When I say first cut, I mean a thousandth or two of a millimeter of contact, and that was it. I'm very disappointed in this parting tool; I've always had good luck with Accusize products, but this one is a total dud! I can't even say I got my money's worth out of it; setting it up took longer than it did for it to do anything. This was a complete waste of money for me!.
I attempted to cut a 3/4" copper rod but was unable to do so. The tool is poorly designed; the 3/8 x 1/2" body is too thin, and the tool bends when loaded, cutting nothing. It's possible that thicker tools, such as those above 3/4 inch, will do a better job. If you need a parting tool for a small lathe that requires a thin body tool (3/8"), this is not the tool for you. I'll try welding a reinforcement bar to the top of the body and see what I can do with it.
The tool is excellent, but the insert did not cut the 60 Rockwell shaft. On both hot and cold rolled steel, it performed admirably. For hardened steels, I'll need to get a new carbide insert.
Warning: this is deceptivebr>I ordered two extra cutting inserts but never received them. It says 2 in the listing, but that isn't accurate. br>Be careful when ordering because you will receive nothing but the cuter.
Brass tubing that is too thin to be cut The 5th case had a blown tip. There will be no more replacement inserts. I'm sending it back because it's faulty.
And I double-checked to make sure it was secure. The tips are installed using the included hex key. It appears to be a good piece of software.
To get the tool to work properly, I had to slightly grind it. It cuts extremely well once the approach angle is fixed.
