Value Collection 01108307 Drill Blank Size 30 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108307 is a wire gauge size 30 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 fabrication, including the grinding of specialty drill bits, punches, and gauging tools. At 0.1285 inches in decimal equivalent and an overall length of 2-3/4 inches, this blank provides machinists and tool grinders with the starting material needed to produce close-tolerance cutting tools. High speed steel construction offers the hardness and heat resistance required for general-purpose tooling applications in machine shops and manufacturing environments.

This drill blank is suited for use in tool and die shops, machine shops, and maintenance environments where custom or non-standard tooling is required. It serves as raw material for grinding custom drill profiles, form tools, and precision gauges. The bright uncoated finish indicates an as-ground surface condition without additional coatings, making it ready for immediate use or further grinding to final geometry. Suitable for fabrication by trained machinists and tool grinders working with surface grinders or cylindrical grinding equipment.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 30 with 0.1285 inch decimal equivalent diameter
• Overall length of 2-3/4 inches for standard blank stock applications
• High speed steel construction for hardness and wear resistance
• Bright uncoated finish — as-ground surface, no additional treatment
• Suitable as raw stock for custom drill bits, punches, and gauging tools

Compatibility

Designed as standard wire gauge size 30 drill blank stock for use in tool grinding and fabrication applications requiring a 0.1285 inch diameter high speed steel blank.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are raw tooling stock and require grinding to final geometry before use as a cutting tool. Handle with care to avoid nicking the ground surface, which can affect tool performance after grinding. Machining and grinding operations should be performed by qualified tool grinders using appropriate personal protective equipment. Follow applicable shop safety standards when operating grinding equipment.
