Value Collection 363-6010 Parallel Cutoff Blade M2 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 363-6010 is a parallel-style cutoff blade designed for parting and grooving operations on lathes and other turning machines. Ground from M2 high-speed steel with a bright finish, this blade delivers consistent cutting performance and good wear resistance under moderate heat conditions. It measures 1/16 inch wide, 1/2 inch high, and 4-1/2 inches long, making it a standard-dimension blade suited to common tool holders that accept P1-industry-standard cutoff blades. Machinists and toolroom operators rely on this profile for clean, straight parting cuts with minimal material waste.

This blade is intended for use in metal-cutting lathe operations, including parting off stock, grooving, and slotting on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The parallel blade style maintains a consistent width along its length, which helps produce uniform slot widths and supports straightforward regrinding when the cutting edge dulls. It is suited to both production shop and maintenance toolroom environments where a reliable, readily available cutoff blade is needed.

Key Features

• Parallel blade style for uniform slot width and consistent parting cuts
• M2 high-speed steel construction for good hardness and heat resistance
• Bright finish indicating a ground, uncoated surface ready for immediate use
• P1 industry standard number for compatibility with standard cutoff blade holders
• Compact 4-1/2 inch overall length fits common lathe tool holders
• 1/16 inch width minimizes material loss at the cut

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for tool holders accepting P1-standard parallel cutoff blades with a 1/16 inch width and 1/2 inch height.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the lathe before seating or replacing the blade in the tool holder. Ensure the blade is clamped securely and set on center before resuming cuts. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine manufacturer guidelines for cutoff blade clearance and feed rates.
