Cleveland C44650 HSS M2 Rectangular Tool Bit

The Cleveland C44650 is a high-speed steel rectangular tool bit designed for general-purpose machining. It serves as a blank for shaping custom lathe tools in a workshop.

Machinists needing a durable HSS M2 blank

This bit suits machinists who grind their own profiles for turning operations. It is not for users requiring pre-formed, indexable inserts or carbide-tipped tooling for high-volume production.

High-Speed Steel M2 construction

The tool bit is made from HSS M2 material, providing the hardness and wear resistance needed for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals. This grade determines the tool's ability to hold an edge under heat.

Questions about this item

Will this 851 tool bit fit the tool holder on my older lathe?

The rectangular blank measures 1/2 in wide by 1 in high by 8 in long, so it fits holders that accept those dimensions.

How can I verify the bit is cutting correctly after I grind it?

A properly ground HSS M2 edge should produce a continuous, shiny chip and a smooth finish without chatter.

Does the package include a pre-ground cutter or just the blank?

The box contains the non-beveled rectangular HSS M2 blank only; no pre-ground cutter or holder is supplied.
