Measuring 7\/16 inches in diameter and 5-1\/2 inches in overall length, this blank gives machinists and toolmakers a solid starting point for grinding their own cutting profiles. M2 high speed steel offers a well-established balance of wear resistance, toughness, and red hardness, making it a standard material choice for shop-ground single-point tools, boring bars, and form tools. The round cross-section suits a wide range of tool holder configurations commonly found in manual and CNC lathe setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit blank is used in machine shops, tool rooms, and maintenance environments where custom-ground cutting tools are required. It is appropriate for turning, boring, and facing operations on lathes when a technician or machinist needs a profile not available in a standard off-the-shelf insert or bit. The ground finish ensures dimensional consistency across the diameter, reducing setup time when seating the blank in a holder or grinding fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for reliable wear resistance and toughness across a broad range of cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround finish provides consistent 7\/16 inch diameter for accurate fitment in tool holders and grinding fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-1\/2 inch overall length allows multiple regrinding cycles, extending usable tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound cross-section is compatible with a wide variety of standard round-shank tool holders and boring bar setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing purchase of exact quantities needed for the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-purpose blank for use in standard round-shank tool holders accepting 7\/16 inch diameter stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and grinding of tool bit blanks should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolmaker familiar with bench grinder and surface grinder operation. Secure the blank firmly in the appropriate holding fixture before grinding to prevent movement and maintain accurate geometry. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow shop safety procedures when grinding high speed steel. Verify tool holder set screw torque specifications per the holder manufacturer guidelines before use in a machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGround Or Unground\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 362-0135\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689339945266,"sku":"362-0135","price":36.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9d85f0dccf97565634ba7634195de017.jpg?v=1788257861","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-362-0135-tool-bit-blank-m2-hss-round","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
