Value Collection 363-6095 Parallel Cutoff Blade M2 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 363-6095 is a parallel-style cutoff blade manufactured from M2 high-speed steel with a bright finish. It is designed for parting and grooving operations on lathes and similar turning equipment. The blade measures 3/16 inches wide, 1-1/8 inches high, and 6-1/2 inches long, making it well-suited for standard toolholder setups used in production and maintenance machining environments. The M2 grade steel provides good wear resistance and toughness across a range of workpiece materials. Machinists, toolroom operators, and maintenance technicians working in metal fabrication or industrial repair settings are the typical end users.

This cutoff blade is intended for use in toolholders and blade holders that accept parallel-profile blades. It is appropriate for light to moderate parting operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both job-shop and production machining contexts. The blade profile conforms to Industry Standard Number P8, which defines dimensional standards for parallel cutoff and parting blades used across compatible toolholder systems. It is sold individually as a single-piece unit.

Installation Notes

This blade is installed by a machinist or toolroom technician into a compatible blade-style toolholder. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before changing or seating the blade. Secure the blade firmly in the holder to the toolholder manufacturer's clamping specification before resuming operation. Inspect the cutting edge before each use and replace the blade if chipping or excessive wear is observed.
