Value Collection 01108521 Drill Blank Size 52 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01108521 is a wire gauge size 52 drill blank made from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish. Drill blanks serve as precision-ground cylindrical stock used for custom toolmaking, jig boring, and gauge pin applications. At 1-7/8 inches overall length and a decimal diameter of 0.0635 inches, this blank offers consistent dimensional accuracy suited to tight-tolerance work. The bright uncoated finish preserves the base steel hardness and is appropriate for applications where coating thickness would interfere with final fit. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this type of stock.

This drill blank is suited for use in machine shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing environments where wire gauge size blanks are required for custom tooling or precision measurement tasks. The size 52 designation corresponds to 0.0635 inches, placing it in a range commonly used for small-diameter work in metalworking and fabrication settings. Sold individually, this blank is available in minimum order quantities of 10 units, making it practical for stocking toolroom inventory or fulfilling recurring small-diameter tooling needs.

• Bright uncoated finish maintains base steel dimensions without coating buildup
• 1-7/8 inch overall length provides usable stock for custom grinding or fitting
• Sold as single units with a minimum order quantity of 10

Compatibility

Designed as a standard wire gauge size 52 drill blank suitable for toolroom, jig, and fixture applications requiring 0.0635-inch diameter precision ground stock.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are handled and fitted by machinists and tool-and-die technicians in controlled shop environments. Proper clamping and support should be used when grinding or finishing the blank to final geometry. Eye protection and appropriate cutting fluid practices apply when machining high speed steel stock. Do not use drill blanks as load-bearing fasteners or in applications outside their rated dimensional tolerances.
