It measures 5\/32 inches thick, 1-1\/2 inches wide, and 36 inches long, and ships in an unhardened state so it can be machined, ground, or shaped before heat treatment. Dimensional tolerances are held tight from the mill: thickness is controlled to plus or minus 0.001 inches, length is plus 0.015 inches, and width runs zero to minus 0.005 inches. These tolerances reduce setup time and material removal during final sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAISI Type O1 oil-hardening tool steel is a general-purpose tool steel widely used in machine shops, toolrooms, and job shops. Typical applications include punches, dies, gauges, jigs, form tools, and other tooling that requires a hard, wear-resistant surface after heat treatment. The flat stock format allows the machinist to cut it to length, profile it, and then send it through an oil-quench hardening cycle. It is suited for both one-off tooling and short production runs where tighter ground stock tolerances are preferred over hot-rolled bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAISI Type O1 oil-hardening tool steel for consistent heat-treat response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness tolerance of plus or minus 0.001 inches for precise fit in tooling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth tolerance of zero to minus 0.005 inches keeps stock undersized for clean finish grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge squareness held to 0.003 inches per inch across all edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-inch length provides adequate stock for most tooling blanks with minimal drop-off waste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnhardened as-supplied condition allows full machining before heat treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard AISI Type O1 oil-hardening flat stock blank compatible with conventional tool and die making, stamping, and general metalworking toolroom applications where oil-quench hardenable tool steel is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCutting, grinding, and machining should be completed before the oil-hardening heat treatment cycle. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and ensure ventilation when cutting or grinding tool steel. Follow your shop's heat-treat procedures and applicable safety standards for quench oils. Handle edges carefully, as ground tool steel edges can be sharp enough to cause lacerations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI Type O1 Oil Hardening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus or minus 0.001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.000 to minus 0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.015 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Squareness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.003 inches per inch, all edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.39 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31231200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 54328\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540234961202,"sku":"54328","price":121.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6555d28ffd7e02d6cc316d25961d7428_1bdd1482-96ff-4ad6-923c-998a7c9c77e8.jpg?v=1785849753","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-54328-o1-tool-steel-flat-stock-5-32x1-1-2x36-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
