Measuring 7\/8 inches wide by 7\/8 inches high with a 6-inch overall length, this blank gives machinists and tool grinders the raw stock needed to profile custom single-point cutting tools, boring bars, and form tools. M2 HSS offers a strong balance of wear resistance, toughness, and red hardness, making it a dependable choice for general-purpose cutting tool fabrication across a wide range of shop applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit blank is suited for use in manual lathes, turret lathes, and tool-and-die operations where custom ground tooling is required. The square cross-section and ground finish allow the blank to seat consistently in standard tool holders and lantern-style post holders. Typical users include machinists, toolmakers, and apprentice shops that grind their own tooling to specific geometries rather than relying on indexable insert systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high-speed steel construction for reliable wear resistance and toughness in cutting tool applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare cross-section at 7\/8 inches by 7\/8 inches for consistent seating in standard tool posts and holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-inch overall length provides ample stock for grinding multiple tool profiles from a single blank\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround finish on all surfaces ensures accurate fitment and reduces prep time before grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing procurement in exact quantities needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose tool bit blank for use in standard 7\/8-inch tool holders and lathe tool posts requiring a square shank profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTool bit blanks are ground to final geometry by a qualified machinist or toolmaker using a bench or tool grinder with appropriate grinding wheels rated for high-speed steel. Secure the blank firmly in a vise or tool grinding fixture before grinding to prevent movement and maintain accurate angles. Always wear eye protection and follow shop safety procedures when grinding HSS tooling. Finished tools should be inspected for proper geometry before installation in the machine tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches (152.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGround or Unground\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C44527\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720964276530,"sku":"C44527","price":299.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/92e0a29ffb05003266203618787223c8.jpg?v=1788571554","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c44527-tool-bit-blank-m2-hss-7-8in-square-6in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
