"Excellent chip control in roughing and finishing (plural passes) Left-hand Stable accuracy of external diameter dimension: When burrs occur, if a Left-hand toolholder is used, it is not necessary to return Guide bush workpiece into guide bush in finishing. Also, Left-hand toolholders prevent guide bush wear caused by chip biting. ¢ Workpiece movement and tool hand selection l In roughing and finishing Roughing Workpiece position after roughing Finishing burrs burrs Right-hand Guide bush burrs burrs Left-hand Guide bush * Good dimension accuracy: If a Left-hand toolholder is used, burrs on workpiece generated in roughing do not damage the guide bush in finishing.
