Parting Tool Holder
Product Code : LSK-MMTM-10599
Parting Tool Holder (SKU LSK-MMTM-10599), also known as a parting-off or cut-off blade holder, clamps a bevelled parting blade on a lathe so trainees can cut finished work off the bar and turn grooves. It belongs in the tooling kit of Turner and Machinist trade workshops, polytechnic machine shops and TVET institutes. Supply comes from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which sends it to training institutes, colleges, tender contractors and distributors, singly or with other lathe tooling.
Specifications
The holder is of one-piece construction and grips the blade firmly along its length, guiding the bevelled blade so that it has equal clearance on both sides. It fits either the front or the rear tool post of the cross slide and comes in three sizes to suit different blade sections.

Applications and Experiments for the Parting Tool Holder
Parting off is one of the first lathe skills that demands careful speed, feed and tool height, and a rigid holder that keeps the blade square makes it far safer to learn. The holder is common in ITI trade tools lists and workshop tools for technical training institutes.
- ITI Turner and Machinist trades: parting off finished components from bar stock.
- Grooving and undercutting exercises, for example thread run-outs.
- Diploma and B.Tech workshop practice on centre lathes.
- Rear tool post parting, where the blade is mounted inverted behind the work.
Set the blade exactly at centre height, keep overhang short and use cutting fluid; trainees should part off only under supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each Parting Tool Holder is supplied as the one-piece holder in the size you order. It is supplied without the parting blade, so specify the matching blade section (1/2, 5/8 or 3/4 in wide) if you want blades added to the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Holders can be quoted in one size or as a mixed set for every lathe in a workshop. The quotation lists packing, delivery time and price per size and quantity, and other lathe tool holders can be included on the same sheet.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. Contact us through the contact page, add the sizes you need to the enquiry cart, or check the lab tender page for tender purchases.
