Value Collection 01108075 Drill Blank Size 7 Wire Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108075 is a wire gauge drill blank in size 7, designed for tool room and custom tooling applications. The blank measures 3.625 inches in overall length and is manufactured from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Drill blanks are unfluted cylindrical rods used by machinists, toolmakers, and grinding shops to grind custom drills, reamers, or precision gauging tools to exact specifications. At 0.012 pounds, this is a compact, single-piece stock item suitable for low-volume precision work.

This drill blank is used in machine shops, tool grinding operations, and manufacturing environments where custom cutting tools are required. The size 7 wire gauge corresponds to a decimal diameter of 0.2010 inches. Applications include grinding specialty drills for close-tolerance hole work, producing custom step tools, or use as a gauge pin where tight dimensional control is needed. It is sold as a single piece and is suited for both prototype and production tooling setups.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are shaped by machinists and tool grinders using surface grinders, cylindrical grinders, or tool and cutter grinders. Proper wheel dressing and coolant use are recommended to maintain blank geometry and temper during grinding. Handle blanks carefully to avoid nicks or surface damage that could affect final tool accuracy. This item is a raw stock blank and requires professional grinding before use as a cutting tool.
