Sherline 1/4" HSS 3-piece Tool Set
Features tools for turning and facing work on the lathe
Retain hardness
Made of high-speed tool steel (HSS)
The Sherline 1/4" HSS 3-piece Tool Set offers cutting tools used for turning and facing work on the lathe. The most popular lathe tools are those made of high-speed tool steel (HSS).
They can be used for machining most materials including wood, plastic, aluminum, brass and free-machining steel. These tools will retain their hardness at temperatures up to 1000° Fahrenheit (588 °C).
For this reason, depth of cut, cutting speed and feed rates are important. The big advantage of high-speed steel tools is the ease with which they can be sharpened. A standard aluminum oxide grinding wheel can be used. Once shaped and sharpened, they will retain their cutting edge for a long time.
NOTE: A tool is named by the direction from which the chip leaves the tool; so a right-hand tool has its cutting edge on the left and the chip peels off to the right.
