Customer Reviews for VEVOR Indexable Carbide Lathe Tools 1/2" Metal Lathe Cutting Tools 7 Pcs/Set lathe tools Super-Hard 40CR Lathe Bits for Lathe Black Compact and Portable

I am an engineer and inventor and I purchased this bit set for my Grizzly 8" x 16" mini lathe.I used 5 of the 7 bits the first day for making a custom sleeve bushing out of mild steel pipe and shortened a gland nut for a hydraulic cylinder. I could easily cut .010" with any of the bits and the finish of the cut was superb. The only issue I had was when I was trying to use the parting tool on my bigger piece, which was the gland nut. It is about 3" O.D. with 1/4" thick walls. I got too much chatter to try to continue with the cut to part .250" off the end. (I suspect it was my machine rather than the bit, being a small mini-lathe that was the reason for the chatter). The rest of the bits cut flawlessly.It came in a nice storage container, which my wife wanted to take when the package arrived, that includes an extra bit tip, screws and tools.Shipping was really fast.I do recommend these carbide bits as a decent selection to have for your lathe.Good quality set for a very reasonable price.Donovan

Die Mei?el tun was sie sollen, sind ordentlich verarbeitet und eigentlich gibt es nichts zu meckern, au?er:Die beworbene Alubox war nicht dabei, sondern eine schlichte Holzkiste, deshalb einen Stern abzug.

Absolutely brilliant, just right and so cheap

Used on an Enco 4' x 1.5" bore lathe with a PhaseII 250-300 tool post. Works great for light machining, even on free machining stainless if you take it easy and lubricate. Comes with some replacement parts, but you will want to pick up a few more inserts because these wear pretty quickly. I would give 5 stars but something has to really be special for that, and these are just plain old index tools that do what they are supposed to.

I work in a machine shop and we use this type of tool a lot, usually these tools are found at a high price but here they are cheap and very good quality.

Seem like decent quality tools. I haven_ had time to put them to much use but so far so good.
