Frequently asked questions

Common questions about MICRO from 3G Electric.

What are the common applications for Micro 100 brazed-tip lathe tool bits?

Micro 100 brazed-tip lathe tool bits are used for turning, facing, and boring operations on manual and CNC lathes. They are suitable for general metalworking applications, including machining steel, aluminum, and cast iron. The tool bits are available in various styles, such as AR, AL, BR, BL, C, D, E, and GR, each with specific geometries for different cutting tasks. For example, the AR style has a corner radius profile and side rake for positive cutting action and chip evacuation, while the BR style has a side cutting edge angle for higher feed rates. These tools are commonly used in job shops, maintenance departments, and production environments where precision and repeatability are required.

What is the shank size of Micro 100 single-point tool bits?

Many Micro 100 single-point tool bits have a shank height of 3/8 in and a shank width of 3/8 in. Some models, such as the GR style (MPN GR-038002), have a shank height of 3/8 in and a shank width of 3/4 in. The shank size determines compatibility with toolholders and the rigidity of the tool during machining. It is important to select a tool bit with the appropriate shank dimensions for the specific lathe and toolholder being used. 3G Electric provides detailed specifications for each Micro 100 tool bit, including shank height and width, to assist with selection.

What materials are Micro 100 brazed-tip lathe tool bits made from?

Micro 100 brazed-tip lathe tool bits are constructed from carbide and zinc. The cutting edge is made of carbide, which provides wear resistance and hardness for machining operations. The shank is made of steel and is often zinc coated to provide durability and corrosion resistance. The brazed construction joins the carbide tip to the steel shank, creating a strong bond. This combination of materials allows the tool to withstand the forces of turning, facing, and boring. The zinc coating helps protect the shank from rust and extends the tool life. 3G Electric supplies these tool bits with the specified materials and coatings.

What tool bit styles are available in the Micro 100 line?

The Micro 100 line includes several tool bit styles, such as AR, AL, BR, BL, C, D, E, and GR. Each style has a specific geometry and is designed for particular machining applications. For example, the AR style features a corner radius profile and is ground with side rake for positive cutting action and better chip evacuation. The BR style has a side cutting edge angle that allows for higher feed rates. The C style is a general-purpose tool bit, while the D style is a multi-functional tool. The E style is another variation, and the GR style has a wider shank for increased stability. These styles are available in various sizes, with many having a 3/8 in shank height and width. 3G Electric stocks a range of these styles to meet different machining needs.

How does 3G Electric support the Micro 100 product line?

3G Electric supplies Micro 100 cutting tools as part of its industrial equipment portfolio. The company stocks a variety of brazed-tip lathe tool bits, boring bars, and toolholders, and provides specification details such as shank dimensions, tool bit style, and materials. 3G Electric serves a global customer base, including plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists. The company offers access to a range of SKUs and can assist with identifying the correct part numbers and specifications. 3G Electric does not manufacture Micro 100 tools but serves as a distributor, providing availability and order fulfillment. The focus is on providing accurate product information to help buyers select the appropriate tool for their machining operations.

What are the benefits of the zinc coating on Micro 100 tool bits?

The zinc coating on Micro 100 tool bits provides durability and corrosion resistance. The shank of the tool bit is coated with zinc, which helps protect it from rust and environmental factors that can degrade the tool over time. This is particularly important in environments where moisture or coolant is present. The zinc coating also adds a layer of protection against wear, extending the life of the tool. The carbide tip is not coated, as it is designed to cut metal. The combination of a carbide cutting edge and a zinc-coated shank allows the tool to perform effectively in turning, facing, and boring operations. 3G Electric supplies these tool bits with the zinc coating as specified by the manufacturer.
