Accupro 00199455 Solid Carbide Split-end Blank 1/8 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 00199455 is a solid carbide split-end blank designed for precision machining and toolmaking applications. This single-end blank features a 30-degree conical point geometry and measures 1/8 inch in diameter with a 3-inch overall length (OAL) and a 3/8-inch split length. Solid carbide construction provides the rigidity and wear resistance required for consistent performance in demanding cutting and grinding operations. Machinists and tool grinders typically specify this blank when producing or regrinding split-point drill configurations to tight tolerances.

This blank is suited for use in machine shops, tool and cutter grinding operations, and production environments where custom or reground split-point tooling is required. The 1/8-inch diameter and 3-inch OAL make it appropriate for small-diameter tooling work in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is sold individually and requires no minimum order beyond a single unit, making it practical for both one-off toolmaking and batch production runs.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for high rigidity and extended wear life
• 30-degree conical point geometry on a single end
• 1/8-inch diameter for small-bore and fine-tolerance tooling applications
• 3-inch overall length (OAL) provides sufficient shank for secure chuck or collet holding
• 3/8-inch split length allows precise grinding to finished split-point geometry
• Single-piece packaging suits prototype and low-volume toolmaking needs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard solid carbide split-end blank suitable for use with conventional tool and cutter grinders capable of accepting 1/8-inch diameter carbide stock.

Installation Notes

Installation and grinding of carbide blanks should be performed by qualified machinists or tool grinders using appropriate diamond grinding wheels rated for solid carbide. Secure the blank firmly in the grinder collet or chuck before beginning any grinding operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow the machine manufacturer's operating procedures when working with carbide stock. Do not attempt to grind carbide with standard aluminum oxide wheels, as this will damage both the blank and the wheel.
