Manufactured to AISI Type O1 specification, this flat stock measures 1\/16 inch thick, 8 inches wide, and 18 inches long. It holds a thickness tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches and a squareness tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches, making it well suited for applications where dimensional consistency is critical. The part weighs 2.55 pounds. Machinists, tool and die makers, and metalworking professionals work with this material to fabricate punches, dies, gauges, and precision fixtures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO1 tool steel flat stock is used across job shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing facilities where a tough, wear-resistant steel is required in a pre-sized flat bar form. The 8-inch width and 18-inch length provide a workable blank for a wide range of tooling cuts. The oil-hardening characteristic of O1 allows the material to be heat treated with minimal distortion compared to water-hardening grades, which is a practical advantage when working to tight finished tolerances. This stock is appropriate for both light and heavy material removal operations prior to heat treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAISI Type O1 oil-hardening tool steel for wear resistance and good machinability before hardening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches for consistent stock removal planning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth tolerance of 0.0000 to minus 0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength tolerance of plus 0.250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquareness tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches with edge squareness of 0.003 inches per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-sized flat bar format reduces raw material prep time in the toolroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard O1 oil-hardening tool steel flat stock suitable for toolmaking, die making, gauge fabrication, and general precision machining applications requiring AISI Type O1 material specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis material is supplied in the annealed condition and is intended to be machined to final shape before heat treatment. Use appropriate cutting fluids and carbide or high-speed steel tooling for best results.
