It measures 0.25 inches wide, 0.5 inches high, and 4 inches in overall length. Tool bit blanks are unground stock used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals to fabricate custom cutting tools, form tools, or lathe bits ground to a specific profile. M35 cobalt steel offers elevated heat resistance compared to standard M2 high-speed steel, making it well-suited for harder workpiece materials and interrupted cuts where tool temperatures rise quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blank is suited for use in manual and CNC turning, boring, and form-tool applications where a shop-ground or reground profile is required. The rectangular cross-section is the most common format for single-point lathe tooling. Machinists grind the blank to the required rake, relief, and nose geometry on a bench grinder or tool-and-cutter grinder. It is a standard size compatible with tool holders and lantern-style post systems that accept 0.25-inch wide by 0.5-inch high blanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM35 cobalt high-speed steel construction for improved heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRectangular cross-section: 0.25 inches wide by 0.5 inches high\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-inch overall length provides adequate stock for grinding and regrinding multiple times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnground blank allows custom profiling to any cutting geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsistent material hardness throughout the blank supports precise tool grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or shop-stock blank for use in standard tool holders and lantern post systems accepting a 0.25-inch by 0.5-inch rectangular tool bit profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTool bit blanks are ground to final geometry by a qualified machinist using a bench grinder or tool-and-cutter grinder equipped with an appropriate wheel for high-speed steel. Eye protection and proper wheel guards must be in place during grinding operations. Secure the blank firmly in a tool rest or grinding fixture to maintain consistent angles. Verify the finished tool geometry and edge condition before mounting in the tool holder and taking a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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: Rectangle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 461-0020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697504715058,"sku":"461-0020","price":51.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f3b449885f2d69905fb9cebae83ae791.jpg?v=1788352242","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-461-0020-m35-cobalt-tool-bit-blank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
