Value Collection 01100056 Drill Blank 5/64 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01100056 is a high speed steel drill blank measuring 5/64 inch (0.0781 inch decimal) in diameter with a 2 inch overall length. Drill blanks are precision-ground cylindrical rods used as raw material for custom tooling fabrication, including the grinding of custom drill bits, reamers, punches, and other cutting tools. This blank carries a bright, uncoated finish and holds a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0003 inch, making it suitable for applications where close dimensional control is required. It is a standard shop consumable used by tool and die makers, machinists, and toolroom professionals.

This drill blank is suited for use in toolroom and production environments where custom cutting tools need to be ground to specification. The tight diameter tolerance supports precision fitment in guided applications. The bright uncoated finish is appropriate for general-purpose tool fabrication where coating is not required or where a custom coating will be applied after grinding.

Key Features

• High speed steel construction for hardness and wear resistance during grinding and use
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for general toolroom fabrication
• Diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0003 inch for close dimensional control
• Decimal diameter of 0.0781 inch (5/64 inch fractional)
• 2 inch overall length provides stock material for small custom tool applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose drill blank for toolroom use where a 5/64 inch diameter, 2 inch length high speed steel blank is required for custom tool grinding.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are raw stock intended for grinding into finished tools by qualified machinists or tool and die makers. Proper personal protective equipment, including eye protection, should be worn during all grinding operations. Secure the blank appropriately in grinding fixtures before machining. Inspect the blank for surface defects before beginning any grinding process.
