SIMTJNL 16-3 — boring bar, 1.00" bar diameter, 1.280" minimum bore, 12.0" overall length. Made in the USA by RMC Tooling.
-3° End Cutting Edge Angle for Negative Triangle TNM_ Inserts.
Steel-shank indexable boring bar from RMC Tooling, machined in the United States. Ground shank, standard indexable geometry, and a rigid clamping system sized to the bar diameter — the combination that keeps chatter down at the depths where boring bars usually give up.
Sized by minimum bore, so start there: pick the largest bar diameter your bore will clear. Every clamp, lock pin, seat and screw in this bar is a stocked RMC service part, listed below.
