They sure are. I got to use the 3rd one over from the left (91B) today for a 5/16-18 UNC thread in a temporary fixture for straightening runout on that pulley I'd had Jenn weld for me.
Today I got a small package with two items.
Item 1, six Ø 1/16" screw machine length parabolic flute Titex A1149TFL-1/16IN drills.
Item 2, a box of 10 Valenite TPGT21.51-PM2 (TPGT110204-PM2) in the now discontinued grade 5615 for steels. Being a ground profile, they'll work fine in aluminum. I have two boring bars that take these or TCMT21.5x inserts. You can put a TPxT insert in a pocket made for TCxT, but not the other way around. One 1/2" bar is definitely an A08-STFPR2 for the TPxT, the other I'm not sure yet.
Suffice to say the price was "cheaper than the shipping", and that was included in the "price."
