← Back to Tools HSS-Co8 parting blade 3/32 (P2) Categories: Lathe, Machining Thinner cutting edge & thicker top edge design give these rectangular blades a T-shape profile that guides chips away from the cut & reduces friction for fast cutting. View on Amazon Additional information: Material HSS-Co8 Size (inches) 3/32 x 1/2 x 4 1/2 NBR WORKS REVIEW Parting off on the lathe used to be a painful operation for me. The purchase of this blade triggered me to make a tool holder for it (spring type) and then spend a good number of hours practicing. The combination of the blade and the tool holder was excellent, and all the practicing gave me the confidence needed for the operation. Today I use this tool mostly to part off soft materials (aluminum, brass, mild steel) which helps the tip to remain sharp for a longer period of time. In case you want to check the tool holder build and the first successful operations, here’s the video.
