Purpose & Audience

The Micro 100 E-6 brazed tool bit is a single-point carbide cutting insert designed for manual lathe work. Machinists and tool-room technicians use it for facing, turning and profiling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous stock.

Critical Specification

The bit is made from HAWA carbide with a zinc braze joint, providing a 3/8 inch shank width and 2.5 inch overall length. This geometry determines the maximum depth of cut and the tool-holder pocket size required.

Build Integration

The shank fits standard 3/8 inch tool-holder blocks, so no special clamping hardware is needed. The carbide tip allows higher cutting speeds than high-speed steel, reducing cycle time on each pass. Buyers who need an indexable insert system or a larger shank for heavy roughing will need a different tool style.

Questions about this item

What does the 3/8 in shank width mean once the bit is in a real machine?

The 3/8 in shank fits directly into a matching tool holder on a lathe or boring bar without an adapter.

What interface or standard does the E-style bit follow, and what does it cap in practice?

The E-style designation sets the bit geometry for external turning, limiting use to that specific cutting orientation.

What does the bit physically need to fit or mount in a holder?

A holder with a 3/8 in square pocket secures the 2.5 in long carbide brazed tip for immediate cutting.
