Accupro 00198846 Solid Carbide Split-end Blank 0.125 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 00198846 is a solid carbide split-end blank designed for use as a raw tool blank in the manufacture or regrinding of rotary cutting tools. With a diameter of 0.125 inches and a tight diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.0005 inches, this blank delivers the dimensional precision required for tool grinding applications. The overall length is 1.5 inches, and the split length measures 0.375 inches. The squared end style makes it suitable for end mill and similar rotary tool profiles. Machinists and tool grinders working in precision cutting tool production or tool room environments are the primary users of this blank.

This blank is used in tool grinding shops, machine shops, and tool room environments where custom or replacement rotary cutting tools are produced. The solid carbide construction supports applications involving hard workpiece materials where high wear resistance and rigidity are required. It is typically handled by tool grinders or skilled machinists performing custom tool fabrication or reconditioning work.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for high rigidity and wear resistance
• Diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.0005 inches for precision fitment in grinding fixtures
• Single squared end style suits standard end mill and flat-end tool profiles
• 0.375-inch split length provides defined working geometry for the ground tool
• 1.5-inch overall length accommodates common tool grinding setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style raw blank for use in precision tool grinding applications where a 0.125-inch diameter solid carbide split-end blank with a squared end is required.

Installation Notes

Installation of this blank requires a qualified tool grinder or machinist using appropriate grinding fixtures and carbide-compatible grinding wheels. Secure the blank properly in the grinding fixture before commencing any grinding operation to prevent movement or micro-fracturing of the carbide substrate. Handle carbide blanks with care to avoid chipping edges prior to grinding, as carbide is brittle under impact loading.
