How to choose carbide turning tips and lathe accessories

Choose a turning tip by the shape of the cut, then by size. Geometry decides what the tip can physically do: a round tip rolls through curves, a square tip works straight sides and flat faces, and the single pointed tip cuts lines a round or square edge cannot reach. Size changes how much edge is in the cut – more edge removes material faster but pulls harder on the bar and on the operator. This category holds 8 HOLZMANN items: six carbide tips and two eccentric clamping systems.

Round, square or pointed

Round tips are the general-purpose choice for bowls, coves and beads, in three sizes: Ø 6 mm on the 10015511 for tight coves, narrow beads and detail, Ø 12 mm on the 10015506 as the middle size, and Ø 16 mm on the 10015509 as the roughing and hollowing tip with the longest curved edge. Square tips take the straight work: 15 x 15 mm on the 10015508 gives about a third more edge per side than the 11.3 x 11.1 mm 10015510, at 0.05 kg of carbide against 0.02 kg. The 10015507 is the only pointed geometry here, a 28 x 10 mm diamond for V-grooves and decorative lines.

Size, resistance and the tool you are holding

Match tip size to the bar and to the operator, not only to the workpiece. A large tip such as the Ø 16 mm 10015509 or the 15 x 15 mm 10015508 puts more edge in the cut, which is what brings a rough blank down to shape but also what generates the most resistance; on a light bar that resistance becomes a fight. The small square 10015510 and the Ø 6 mm 10015511 pull less and stay controllable on light tools and small work. Most turners end up with one large and one small tip of each geometry rather than one compromise size.

Coating

Coating is listed on part of the range rather than all of it: HOLZMANN publishes the 10015506, 10015507, 10015508 and 10015509 as titanium plated or titanium coated. Coating matters most for edge life on abrasive and resinous timber and least on short work in clean softwood. Confirm the finish of the tip you want on the quotation rather than assuming every article carries the same coating.

Holding the work: two eccentric clamping systems

Workholding is the accessory decision here, and HOLZMANN gives both eccentric clamping systems the same job – fixing heavy and unbalanced turning pieces on a wood lathe. The difference is reach and stiffness. The ES25070 is the compact unit at ML 70 mm on Ø 25 mm and 1 kg net; the ES30110 carries on where the ES25070 runs out, at ML 110 mm on Ø 30 mm and 1.5 kg net, with 40 mm more length and 5 mm more diameter to resist deflection a shorter unit would allow.

What to budget alongside the tips

Budget the holder, the lathe and the safety kit as separate lines. Carbide tips are cutting inserts – they need a turning bar or holder to sit in, and the fixing screw is what wears first, so a spare screw and driver is worth adding. Tips are indexed and replaced rather than reground like high-speed steel gouges, so treat them as a running cost and order more than one of the geometry you use most. Face protection, and an eccentric clamping system if you turn unbalanced blanks, complete the working set.

How to choose

  1. Round tip (10015511, 10015506, 10015509)

    Curved work - bowls, coves, beads and hollowing. Pick Ø 6 mm for detail and reach, Ø 12 mm as the middle size, Ø 16 mm for roughing where the longest curved edge helps.

  2. Square tip (10015510, 10015508)

    Straight sides, shoulders and flat faces. 15 x 15 mm gives roughly a third more edge per side than 11.3 x 11.1 mm and carries 0.05 kg of carbide against 0.02 kg.

  3. Pointed diamond tip (10015507)

    V-grooves, decorative lines and detail a curved or straight edge cannot enter. The 28 x 10 mm 10015507 is the only pointed geometry in the range.

  4. Large tip vs small tip

    More edge in the cut removes material faster but pulls harder. Large sizes suit heavy bars and roughing; the small square and Ø 6 mm round stay controllable on light bars and small work.

  5. Titanium coating

    HOLZMANN lists the 10015506, 10015507, 10015508 and 10015509 as titanium plated or coated. Coating earns its place on abrasive and resinous timber; confirm the finish on the quotation.

  6. Eccentric clamp ES25070 vs ES30110

    Both fix heavy and unbalanced turning pieces. Choose ML 70 mm on Ø 25 mm for compact work, ML 110 mm on Ø 30 mm when extra length and stiffness are needed.

  7. How many tips to order

    Carbide tips are indexed and replaced rather than reground, so order more than one of the geometry used most and treat tips as a running cost, not a one-off purchase.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose between round, square and pointed carbide turning tips?
Choose the turning tip by the shape of the cut. Round tips - the Ø 6 mm 10015511, the Ø 12 mm 10015506 and the Ø 16 mm 10015509 - roll through curves, coves, beads and hollowing, with larger radii for roughing and smaller for detail. Square tips, the 11.3 x 11.1 mm 10015510 and the 15 x 15 mm 10015508, handle straight sides and flat faces. The 28 x 10 mm 10015507 is the only pointed tip in the range and is used for V-grooves and decorative lines.
Do lathe tools and accessories have any power supply requirement?
Carbide turning tips and eccentric clamping systems draw no power at all - they are cutting inserts and workholding, so the electrical question belongs to the lathe they are used on, not to the accessories. When planning a turning bench, confirm the supply the lathe itself requires and whether your workshop socket or three-phase panel can serve it, then order tips and clamps against the work you intend to turn. The accessories on this page fit into either arrangement.
What space and dust extraction does turning with these tools need?
Turning needs a clear working arc around the lathe rather than a large footprint, with room to stand to the side of the blank and space to swing long tool handles. Extraction is the part often skipped: turning throws chips near the tool and fine dust when sanding on the lathe, so position an extraction hood or mobile vacuum behind the workpiece and treat face protection as standard, particularly with unbalanced blanks held in an eccentric clamping system such as the ES25070 or ES30110.
Which eccentric clamping system should I choose, the ES25070 or the ES30110?
Choose the eccentric clamping system by the reach and stiffness the blank demands. HOLZMANN gives both the same job - fixing heavy and unbalanced turning pieces on a wood lathe - but the ES25070 is the compact unit at ML 70 mm on Ø 25 mm and 1 kg net, while the ES30110 is ML 110 mm on Ø 30 mm and 1.5 kg net, adding 40 mm of length and 5 mm of diameter. Pick the ES30110 when the work is long or badly unbalanced enough that a shorter clamp would deflect.
What determines the cost of turning tips and lathe accessories?
Cost across these items follows carbide mass, geometry, coating and quantity: a 15 x 15 mm square or a Ø 16 mm round carries 0.05 kg of carbide against 0.02 kg for the smaller sizes, and titanium plating is listed on part of the range. On a quotation the drivers are which geometries and sizes you order, how many of each, whether an eccentric clamping system is included, and delivery. Because carbide tips are consumables, ask for a repeat quantity to be priced with the first order.
Are carbide tips sharpened, or replaced?
Carbide turning tips are indexed and replaced rather than reground the way traditional high-speed steel gouges are sharpened on a bench grinder. That is the practical trade: no grinding jig and no sharpening skill needed, but the tips are a running cost, and the fixing screw that holds a tip in the bar is the part that wears first. Order more than one of the geometry you use most - typically the round radius that matches your usual work - and keep a spare screw and driver at the lathe.
