Value Collection 01108364 Drill Blank Size 36 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108364 is a wire gauge size 36 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. This blank measures 0.1065 inches in decimal diameter and 2.5 inches in overall length. The bright finish indicates no additional coating has been applied, leaving the steel in its ground state for maximum versatility when regrinding, reshaping, or using as a gauge pin. High speed steel construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for general machining and toolmaking applications.

This drill blank is suited for use in machine shops, toolrooms, and maintenance environments where custom tooling is fabricated or existing tools are reconditioned. Wire gauge sizing follows standard wire gauge conventions, making size 36 at 0.1065 inches a common dimension for small-bore work and precision punch fabrication. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians typically work with blanks of this size when producing custom drills or plug gauges to close tolerances.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 36, equivalent to 0.1065 inches decimal diameter
• 2.5 inches overall length provides stock for regrinding or custom tool fabrication
• High speed steel construction for hardness and wear resistance in machining applications
• Bright, uncoated finish — no secondary coating to remove before regrinding or use as a gauge
• Sold individually, suitable for single-piece toolroom needs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose drill blank for use wherever wire gauge size 36 stock is required in toolroom, machining, or maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are typically handled by machinists or tool and die makers using precision grinding equipment. Secure the blank properly in a tool and cutter grinder or surface grinder chuck before any material removal. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection when grinding high speed steel. Inspect the blank for runout before use if tight dimensional tolerances are required.
