The FoR holder takes the common 1/2" x 3/32" tapered type parting blade, these also have a bevel on the top and bottom so that they lock securely into a holder.

The FoR Parting Tool Holder does not include a blade in the purchase, but these are widely available from several manufacturers and many suppliers worldwide. The blade is easily sharpened on any bench grinder and instructions for setting up, sharpening, and tips for best results, are included with the holder.

Blades are double bevel for use in Brown and Sharpe type holders. Can be used in either a right hand or a left hand holder.

The FoR (Front or Rear) Inverted Parting Toolholder INCLUDES a fine, high-strength Crobalt parting tool. The FoR operates with the blade held upside down and can be used in a front or rear tool post.

This model is specifically set for toolposts that accommodate the 8mm Diamond Toolholder.

ADVANTAGES:

1: The inverted blade design significantly reduces the chance of a jam-up and blade breakage.

2: Minimal side overhang and no front overhang help maximize rigidity.

3: Cutting takes place on the underside so swarf will tend to fall out of the groove rather than pile up on top of the cutting edge.

4: The lack of swarf on top of the blade means coolant is free to get right in to the cutting edge.

5: The horizontal mounting of the blade further reduces the chance of the blade pulling itself into the cut and is especially advantageous when turning brass and bronze.

6: Simple to resharpen as only the front face has to be ground.
