IMPA: 633006

High Speed Steel Tip Welded Tool Bits – Right Hand / Left Hand Knife Tool (IMPA 633006)

These high-speed steel (HSS) tip welded tool bits, Model No. 13, are precision cutting tools used for lathe turning, facing, and profiling operations. Each tool bit features a high-speed steel cutting tip securely welded to a hardened carbon steel body, offering exceptional wear resistance and heat dissipation. Available in right-hand and left-hand knife tool configurations, they provide clean cutting performance in both manual and CNC lathe operations.

Designed to meet the demands of marine engineering workshops and ship chandler supply chains, these tool bits conform to IMPA 633006, the International Marine Purchasing Association code for HSS tip welded tool bits. The Model 13 profile is versatile enough for roughing and finishing cuts on a wide range of metals, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous alloys. With proper regrinding, the HSS tip can be resharpened repeatedly to extend tool life.

Whether you are maintaining on-board machinery, fabricating parts, or repairing precision components, these knife tool bits deliver stable cutting action and reliable results. Order the right-hand or left-hand version to match your lathe feed direction and cutting requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between right-hand and left-hand knife tool bits?

Right-hand knife tool bits are intended for feeding from right to left (toward the lathe headstock) and have the cutting edge on the left side. Left-hand tool bits feed from left to right, with the cutting edge on the right side. Select the correct hand based on your machining setup and feed direction.

Can these welded HSS tool bits be resharpened?

Yes, the high-speed steel tip can be reground using a grinding wheel. Regrinding restores the cutting edge and allows you to adjust the tool geometry for different materials or operations.

What materials can I cut with Model No. 13 tool bits?

These tool bits are suitable for machining carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. For hard or heat-resistant alloys, use appropriate cutting speeds and cooling/lubrication to preserve the HSS edge.

How do I identify IMPA 633006 tool bits?

IMPA 633006 is the International Marine Purchasing Association code for HSS tip welded tool bits, specifically the right-hand/left-hand knife tool type. It is widely used in ship chandler and marine supply catalogs to simplify ordering and stock management.
