Value Collection 01108224 Drill Blank Size 22 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108224 is a wire gauge size 22 drill blank manufactured from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish. Drill blanks are precision-ground cylindrical rods used as raw stock for custom tooling, including special-purpose drills, punches, and gauging pins. At 3.125 inches overall length and 0.1570 inches in diameter, this blank gives toolmakers and machinists a consistent, hardened starting point for grinding custom cutting geometries. The bright finish provides a clean, uncoated surface ready for direct use or further processing.

This drill blank is suited for machine shops, tool rooms, and production environments where standard off-the-shelf drill geometries do not meet specific application requirements. Toolmakers use blanks like this to grind specialized point angles, relief angles, or step geometries on a tool and cutter grinder. The high speed steel construction handles moderate heat and cutting stress, making it appropriate for general-purpose toolmaking across a range of workpiece materials.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 22 with a decimal equivalent of 0.1570 inches
• High speed steel construction for hardness and wear resistance
• Bright uncoated finish provides a clean surface for direct use or custom grinding
• 3.125-inch overall length offers adequate stock for most custom tooling applications
• Consistent diameter tolerance supports accurate gauging and tool fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose drill blank for toolmaking and gauging applications requiring a wire gauge size 22 diameter of 0.1570 inches.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are installed or used by machinists and toolmakers, typically in a tool and cutter grinder or precision fixture. Secure the blank firmly in the appropriate holding device before grinding or pressing operations. Always wear appropriate eye protection when grinding high speed steel. Follow shop safety procedures for handling hardened tool steel stock.
