The Robust 1/4” Parting/Beading Tool is made from heat-treated M2 High-Speed steel that is “Nitrided” using carbon and nitrogen to significantly increase wear resistance. It is designed to make parting cuts and cutting beads, so it’s hollow ground to provide the ultimate shearing cut. Actual dimensions may vary slightly. Sold unhandled. Made in USA.
