Accupro 00199513 Solid Carbide Split-end Blank 5/16 in

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 00199513 is a solid carbide split-end blank designed for precision toolmaking and custom cutting tool fabrication. It features a single conical point end ground to a 30-degree point angle, making it suited for applications that require a sharp, defined tip geometry. The blank measures 4 inches overall length with a 5/16-inch diameter and a 1/2-inch split length. Solid carbide construction provides the hardness and rigidity required for consistent performance in high-tolerance machining environments. Tool grinders, cutter grinders, and toolroom machinists use blanks like this as the starting material for custom-profiled cutting tools.

This split-end blank is used in toolroom and production environments where custom cutting tools are ground to specific profiles. The conical point geometry and split-end configuration make it appropriate as stock material for drills, reamers, and specialty cutters ground from solid carbide rod. It is typically handled by tool and cutter grinder operators working in job shops, aerospace, medical device, and precision machining facilities.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for maximum hardness and rigidity
• 30-degree conical point angle on a single end
• 5/16-inch diameter for common toolroom stock sizing
• 4-inch overall length provides material for standard tool profiles
• 1/2-inch split length ready for custom tool grinding operations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard solid carbide split-end blank for use in toolroom grinding and custom cutting tool fabrication applications requiring a 5/16-inch diameter, 30-degree conical point blank.

Installation Notes

Handling and grinding of solid carbide blanks should be performed by qualified tool and cutter grinder operators using appropriate grinding wheels rated for carbide. Secure the blank properly in a collet or grinding fixture before any material removal. Eye protection and dust controls are required when grinding carbide due to fine particulate hazards. Do not use standard HSS grinding wheels on carbide material.
