Value Collection 01108471 Drill Blank Size 47 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108471 is a wire gauge size 47 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 tooling, gauge pins, punch and die work, and specialty drill fabrication. This blank measures 0.0785 inches in decimal diameter and 2 inches in overall length. High speed steel construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for grinding to close tolerances. The bright finish indicates no secondary coating, making it suitable for applications where a clean, unaltered surface is required before further machining or heat treatment.

This drill blank is used in tool and die shops, machine shops, and maintenance environments where standard off-the-shelf drill bits do not meet dimensional or application requirements. Machinists and toolmakers grind these blanks to produce custom drills, reamers, scribes, or punches. The size 47 wire gauge diameter is common in precision metalworking, electronics assembly tooling, and light fabrication where small-diameter custom tools are needed. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 47 with a decimal diameter of 0.0785 inches for precise dimensional reference
• High speed steel construction for hardness, toughness, and grindability
• Bright, uncoated finish provides a clean surface for custom grinding or further processing
• 2 inch overall length offers sufficient stock for most small-diameter custom tooling applications
• Minimum order quantity of 10 pieces supports bench stock and production needs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose drill blank for use in tool and die fabrication, punch and die applications, and custom drill grinding where a size 47 wire gauge diameter is required.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are raw stock and require grinding by a qualified machinist or toolmaker before use as a cutting tool. Use appropriate tool grinding equipment and personal protective equipment when shaping this blank. Inspect the blank for straightness and surface condition before beginning any grinding operation. Handle with care to avoid nicking the ground surface, which can affect final tool accuracy.
