Value Collection 01108059 Drill Blank Size 5 Wire Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108059 is a wire gauge size 5 drill blank made from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Drill blanks are precision-ground cylindrical rods used as starting stock for custom drill bits, punches, gauges, and other tooling. At 3.75 inches overall length and a decimal diameter of 0.2055 inches, this blank is suited for machine shops, toolrooms, and fabrication environments where off-the-shelf tooling does not meet specific geometry requirements. The high speed steel construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for grinding into functional cutting tools or precision gauges.

This drill blank is used in toolroom applications where machinists and tool grinders require a precision-diameter steel rod to fabricate or rework tooling. It is appropriate for use in light manufacturing, maintenance and repair operations, and job shops. The bright uncoated finish makes it easy to inspect for surface condition before grinding. Sold as a single piece, it fits toolroom stock programs where individual blanks are pulled as needed for custom tool fabrication.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 5 with a decimal diameter of 0.2055 inches for precise toolroom sizing
• 3.75 inches overall length provides material for grinding to final tool geometry
• High speed steel construction offers hardness and thermal resistance for demanding grinding applications
• Bright uncoated finish allows for easy surface inspection before use
• Sold individually, supporting low-volume toolroom restocking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose toolroom drill blank suitable for fabricating custom drills, punches, and gauges where a wire gauge size 5 diameter of 0.2055 inches is required.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are handled and ground by qualified machinists or tool grinders using appropriate bench or cylindrical grinding equipment. Always wear proper eye protection when grinding high speed steel. Secure the blank firmly in the grinding fixture before commencing material removal to prevent slippage or breakage.
