Carbide parting tool for Aloris BXA7

[slowneasy]

I would add that I tend to agree with G-ManBart about having your parting blade level as oppose to angled. However I do still use the BXA-7 tool holder and really like these blades from "Somma Tool".

Tony,

Aloris actually does make a blade for the BXA7 that uses GT style inserts....I'll put the link below.
Here's the Aloris part I mentioned:

SGIH 26-4C-B7 CUT-OFF BLADE

Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for! I just ordered it. I'll be mindful of the DOC changes. It will probably work for the majority of my work with it just inserted all the way in.

Can anyone tell me what the the numerical designation is on the inserts? I'll need to order some for hard steel.

Tony.

FWIW I use an Aloris BXA 71 parting tool and the GTN3 cutoff blade with Iscar inserts, but I am a noob and not familiar with the full range of tools.
