Magnum 1/2 Inch Square Shank Brazed Carbide Tipped Tool Bit (C10-C6)
Maintain edge sharpness during interrupted cuts on alloy steels with the thermal resilience of this C6 grade tool bit. Engineered for heavy-duty turning and face machining, the brazed carbide tip is fused to a high-tensile 1/2" steel shank to dampen harmonics and prevent chatter. It provides the stability required for aggressive material removal while resisting the heat buildup of continuous production.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can these be resharpened? A: Yes, they can be resharpened using a silicon carbide (green) wheel or diamond wheel.
Q: Is this suitable for stainless steel? A: While C6 is for general steel, it can work on some stainless; however, specialized grades are better for high-nickel alloys.
