The blank measures 7\/16 inches wide by 7\/16 inches high with an overall length of 3-1\/2 inches, providing sufficient stock for a range of single-point lathe tools, boring bars, and specialty cutters. M35 cobalt content improves red hardness and wear resistance compared to standard M2 HSS, making it a reliable choice for harder workpiece materials and interrupted cuts. The part weighs approximately 0.25 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tool bit blank is suited for general-purpose toolroom and production machining environments. It is used when a standard off-the-shelf cutting tool geometry does not meet the job requirement and a custom-ground profile is needed. Typical applications include grinding single-point turning tools for manual lathes, threading tools, and form tools in both job shop and maintenance machining settings. The square cross-section suits standard tool holders and lantern-style post holders commonly found on engine lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM35 cobalt high-speed steel construction for improved red hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare cross-section at 7\/16 inches x 7\/16 inches fits standard lathe tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-1\/2 inch overall length provides adequate stock for grinding and re-grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing single-piece procurement for toolroom needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnground blank format gives the user full control over final cutting geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose tool bit blank for use in standard square-shank tool holders and lantern post holders that accept 7\/16 inch square stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTool bit blanks require grinding to a finished cutting geometry before use; this work is typically performed by a machinist using a bench or pedestal grinder with an appropriate wheel for high-speed steel. Eye protection and proper wheel guards must be in place during grinding operations. Inspect the blank for cracks or surface defects before grinding. Follow applicable shop safety procedures when handling freshly ground cutting edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 460-0090\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692782715186,"sku":"460-0090","price":42.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c5ba483a32ab9f1ca376d24645835022.jpg?v=1788302807","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-460-0090-m35-cobalt-tool-bit-blank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
