Value Collection 363-7075 Parallel Cutoff Blade M35 Cobalt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 363-7075 is a parallel-style cutoff blade designed for parting and grooving operations on lathes and other turning equipment. Manufactured from M35 cobalt high-speed steel with a bright finish, this blade delivers increased heat and wear resistance compared to standard M2 high-speed steel, making it well-suited for harder materials and interrupted cuts. It measures 3/16 inches wide, 7/8 inches high, and 6 inches long, conforming to Industry Standard Number P5. Machinists and tool-room technicians are the primary users of this blade in both production and maintenance turning applications.

This cutoff blade is used in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance environments where parting off stock or cutting grooves in ferrous and non-ferrous metals is required. The parallel geometry provides consistent tool height and straightforward clamping in standard cutoff blade holders that accept P5-profile tooling. It is appropriate for use on engine lathes, turret lathes, and similar turning centers operating at conventional cutting speeds for cobalt HSS tooling.

Key Features

• M35 cobalt high-speed steel construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard HSS
• Bright finish — no coating, ready for direct use or additional surface treatment
• Parallel blade style for consistent clamping height in standard P5 blade holders
• 3/16 inches wide profile minimizes material loss during parting operations
• 6 inches overall length provides adequate reach for typical lathe parting depths
• Conforms to Industry Standard Number P5 for broad holder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard supply item for cutoff blade holders accepting the P5 industry-standard parallel profile.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or qualified tool-room technician should install and set cutoff blades. Power down and lock out the lathe spindle before seating or removing the blade from the holder. Ensure the blade is clamped securely and set on or slightly below center height before resuming operation. Refer to the machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when selecting feed rates and speeds for M35 cobalt tooling.
