Accusize 3/8″ x 3/8″ Cut-Off Holder with 10 Carbide Inserts

Description

Product Overview

The Accusize 3/8″ x 3/8″ cut‑off holder (model MGEHR06-2) is a precision‑engineered indexable tool designed for parting and grooving operations in steel machining. Constructed from a black‑oxided, smooth‑finished alloy, the holder provides a rigid, vibration‑dampened platform that maintains alignment under heavy cutting loads. It ships with a complete set of ten MGMN200 TiN‑coated carbide inserts, each featuring a 0.2 mm corner radius and a 0.079″ width, delivering sharp, consistent cutting edges that resist wear and thermal degradation.

Dimensionally, the holder measures 3.94 × 1.77 × 1.38 inches and weighs only 3.53 oz, making it easy to handle while still offering the rigidity required for high‑speed steel removal. The shank size of 3/8″ × 3/8″ ensures compatibility with standard collet chucks across a wide range of CNC and manual machines. The TiN coating on the inserts reduces friction, extends tool life, and helps maintain surface finish quality even during prolonged production runs.

Designed for both professional manufacturing floors and hobbyist workshops, this tool balances durability with ease of use. The included inserts are indexed for quick changeover, allowing operators to replace worn inserts in seconds, minimizing machine downtime. The holder’s design also promotes efficient chip evacuation, reducing the risk of re‑cutting and improving overall machining efficiency.

Accusize’s reputation for quality control is reflected in the consistent performance of this cut‑off holder. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing to meet ISO standards for dimensional accuracy and material hardness, ensuring that every holder delivers the same high level of precision and reliability that customers expect from the brand.

Usage

This cut‑off holder excels in a variety of machining scenarios, from small‑batch prototype production to large‑scale industrial parting. It is particularly well‑suited for machining carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel where clean, straight cuts are essential. The tool’s compact size allows it to be used in tight workspaces, making it ideal for CNC milling machines, vertical machining centers, and even manual turret lathes.

In hobbyist environments, the holder provides a cost‑effective solution for users who need reliable parting capability without investing in larger, more expensive tooling systems. Its lightweight construction reduces the load on smaller spindle motors, while the TiN‑coated inserts deliver the same cutting performance found in higher‑end industrial tools.

For industrial applications, the holder’s ability to maintain cutting precision over long production runs translates into higher throughput and lower scrap rates. The indexable inserts can be rotated to expose fresh cutting edges, extending the overall service life of the tool and reducing the frequency of tool changes.

When used in conjunction with proper coolant delivery, the holder helps to keep cutting temperatures low, further enhancing insert life and surface finish quality. Operators can confidently employ this holder for both roughing and finishing cuts, knowing that the tool’s design supports a wide range of feed rates and spindle speeds.

FAQ

What types of steel can this holder cut?

The holder is suitable for carbon steel, alloy steel, and most stainless steel grades. Its TiN‑coated inserts maintain cutting efficiency even on harder alloys, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of metalworking projects.

How often should the inserts be rotated or replaced?

Inserts can be rotated after each cut to expose a fresh edge, which typically extends the service life of each insert by 2‑3 times. When the cutting edge becomes noticeably dull or chipped, replacement is recommended to maintain optimal performance.

Is coolant required when using this holder?

While the holder can operate dry for light‑duty applications, using coolant is strongly recommended for heavy cuts or prolonged machining. Coolant helps control temperature, reduces tool wear, and improves chip evacuation, leading to better surface finishes.

Can this holder be used on CNC machines with automatic tool changers?

Yes, the 3/8″ × 3/8″ shank is compatible with most CNC tool magazines and automatic changers. The indexable inserts are designed for quick manual replacement, but they can also be swapped using standard ATC procedures when the machine supports it.

What warranty does Accusize offer for this product?

Accusize provides a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Should any issues arise, contact our customer service team for assistance, and we will arrange repair or replacement in accordance with the warranty terms.
