At 5\/8 inch in diameter and 6 inches in overall length, this round ground blank provides consistent stock for lathe tools, form tools, and specialty cutters. M2 high speed steel offers a strong balance of hardness, wear resistance, and toughness, making it a practical choice for general-purpose tool grinding across a range of metals and shop applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit blank is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and tool rooms where custom-ground tooling is required. It is commonly used by machinists to fabricate single-point lathe tools, boring tools, and form cutters. The round cross-section and ground finish allow for precise measurements and consistent seating in tool holders or grinding fixtures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM2 high speed steel construction for reliable hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound ground profile ensures dimensional accuracy for tool grinding setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch diameter provides substantial stock for a range of custom tool profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 inch overall length allows multiple tools to be ground from a single blank\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround finish reduces prep time before sharpening or profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose round tool bit blank for use in standard tool grinding applications requiring 5\/8 inch diameter M2 high speed steel stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTool bit blanks are ground to shape using a bench grinder or surface grinder and should be handled by qualified machinists familiar with tool grinding procedures. Secure the blank firmly in a grinding fixture or tool rest before shaping to maintain proper geometry. Always use appropriate eye protection and follow shop safety protocols when grinding high speed steel. Allow the blank to cool periodically during grinding to prevent overheating the steel and reducing its hardness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 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: 0.54 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: 362-0163\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721904587058,"sku":"362-0163","price":76.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a1790a3a401ac18121a1d6d07acc1919.jpg?v=1788582892","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-362-0163-tool-bit-blank-m2-hss-round","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
