As mentioned above, stay away from the junky Enco import sets. I have an 11" lathe Emco-Maximat Super 11 and I have never used anything but indexable tooling. We accept Pay pal payment only. Indexable Carbide Lathe Tools These lathe cabide tools 16mm indexable lathe tools install have excellent performance at meeting your different requirements for various fields of processing products, like metal processing, rough finish etc. Is this a good place to start?

This would be for my 11" Sheldon lathe. She ain't no Hardinge or Monarch, but I think it's a fairly rigid machine for it's type. Thanks, -Gord. Gordon, This has been covered a number of times. IMO, for most home shop work, you're better off with cemented carbides for lathe work. You'll have to get a silicon carbide green grinding wheel to sharpen them. For what you would spend on holders and inserts, you could be 2 boxes of cemented carbides and a 6" bench grinder to sharpen them on.

Don't get me wrong, I have indexable inserts in my shop. I use them in milling cutters and boring bars. I have 2 insert holders for the lathe that I have never used. I have one threading holder that gets used a lot. J Tiers Guest. Most of the brazed carbide I have seen has been import trash. Crap from the word go, I have had whole tips tear off of the shank. I now have some older US made brazed stuff, pre-ground to whatever, scrap bin cutters. They are OK.

At least the holders were USA made, but not expensive. Edit Yes, per the below, it must have been Dorian, not Aloris. I got a part of the ship ticket that I wasn't supposed to, that's how I knew where they came from I have quit messing with them and am back to HSS for most anything, but the carbide would come out again for some things. Almost every Sheldon I have seen is considerably heavier built than the equivalent swing typical homeshop Logan or SouthBend, Three or four times heavier made than any Atlas.

So it should oughtta be able to use the carbide just fine if you have the power. I have an 11" lathe Emco-Maximat Super 11 and I have never used anything but indexable tooling.

You can get an idea of where to begin on the Dorian web site, however, the subject is wide and deep. If you look at the Mitsubishi Carbide web site you will see an entire universe of inserts. I found a local tooling vendor that sells to many machine shops in the area. Also, the insert vendors each have very capable people that are typically willing to come by and spend time helping you even if you have a home shop. I have found that you do need to use different inserts for different metals, etc, but when you get the right insert you don't need to polish anything because the finish is just perfect.

For cheap insert holders for a small machine, take a look at this. I would break down and buy a FEW insert holders.

Get some or size holders. Join Date Feb Location latrobe,Pa. Usually cheapest of all. As for the T just run it slow. Even though I manufacture and sell indexable inserts out T I have to tell you Carbide would probably work better for hardened steel.

Boy that's hard for me to say. Oh well good luck Mike. Thanks for all the feedback. What is the difference between these two type of inserts? Are 'T' and 'M' for different types of hold-down screws? Also, if I think I can turn pre-hardened steel with this, I'm I going to have to go to a flood or mist coolant system, or can I get away with dry? I understand brushing-on oil is a bad idea with carbide.

Thanks again! If you get a cheap holder set whatever you do don't get the ENCO "import" or its equivalent. The ENCO is cheese steel garbage with what look like hand-cut seats that don't even properly fit the inserts.
