HHIP 2000-7050 1/8 x 3/4 x 5 Inch 8% Cobalt Parallel Type Cut-Off Blade-P3W (Pack of 1)

I bought one of these a while back and it has been performing very well. It did need a little touch up on the cutting edge, but that is to be expected since people use different set ups. I use this in a BXA 250-207 holder so the angle it pretty close to what I need.When set up right this blade cuts through steel like butter. I have used it on Aluminum, Mild Steel, 12L14, and a couple types of Stainless.I am buying a new one because I made a mistake while parting. I was using tail support on a part with a large hang out (planning on removing when I got close to finished) and screwed up when I went to remove the tail support resulting in a broken blade. I was able to fix the blade (which is shorter now) by grinding it again but I wanted to have the full length.

Easy to change out and sharpen. Works well

I've been using this for a few weeks now to cut a variety of metals - mostly stainless steel and brass, but some harder tool steels (A2) as well. I'm pretty happy with it's performance - cuts well, especially with oil, and I have barely had to touch up the edge. Easy to center. I may try cutting a little chip breaker into the edge to see how that goes, since I have plenty of material to work with. Altogether much better than my HSS blade.

Out of the box didn't cut well but did an undercut with the grinder and WOW what a different, cuts like butter, no deflection , cut straight and fast.

I am new to machining and this is my first use of a parting tool. I was warned to wait until I "got my feet wet" before attempting parting. Plus, I was told to "stay away from the cheap tools until you break a few high dollar ones".Well, I got my feet wet, but jumped into the lower cost unit right off. I am VERY HAPPY with the decision. Like anything else, setup is the key to parting. BUT...if you set up correctly, and watch your feed/speed, this tool is AWESOME! Immediately, it looked like I knew what I was doing. No chatter, and the tool did not try to walk up or down the material.I should shay that I use a Precision Matthews, 1440BV lathe, which I also love.Definitely worth the money!

This works very well for cutout tool on the lathe. I’m still using it today. Very nice.

Edge rolled when trying to part a small .2" dia 41L40 part. Speeds were proper and feed was by hand due to possible part deflection. Edge rolled almost immediately. Have not tried to sharpen or grind any new Edge on it yet and that may adjust my review. Have not tired it on aluminum or softer metals and it may work fantastic for that.

I was sick of dealing with the cheap insert parting tool giving me issues. This cobalt HSS cutter works awesome on both mild steel and aluminum. A little love on the leading edge to clean up burrs produced a clean cut in no time. Highly recommended cutter for anyone with a lathe!

It works good. Had to sharpen and hone it to get the best cut. All good now.

Es necesario tener el portaherramientas adecuado pero viene prácticamente lista para usar. Muy buen material, muy buen corte (buen acabado y buen avance)

Being of small demention I have to hold it to work as close as possible and cuts very well. I'm just a hobby guy and very satisfied with it.

Pour tour à métal

Sharpened it and proceeded to plunge it 1.5" into 304SS. Five stars
