Value Collection 60213469 S-7 Flat Stock 1x36 Inch

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 60213469 is an S-7 tool steel flat stock bar measuring 0.125 inches thick, 1 inch wide, and 36 inches long. S-7 is an air- or oil-hardening shock-resistant tool steel known for high impact toughness and moderate wear resistance. This flat stock is supplied in bar form and is used by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance tradespeople who need a reliable stock material for fabricating tooling, punches, fixtures, and wear components. The piece weighs 1.43 pounds and holds tight dimensional tolerances, making it suitable for precision work without requiring heavy stock removal before use.

This flat stock is appropriate for shop fabrication and industrial maintenance applications where shock-resistant tool steel is specified. S-7 performs well in both hot and cold work applications and is commonly used to produce chisels, punches, forming dies, and other impact tooling. The 36-inch length provides a full bar suitable for multiple short cuts or a single longer workpiece. Machinists and toolmakers working in job shops, maintenance departments, and tool rooms are the primary users of this stock form.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining of tool steel flat stock should be performed by qualified machinists or toolmakers using appropriate metalworking equipment. Always wear proper PPE including eye protection and cut-resistant gloves when sawing, grinding, or handling bar stock. S-7 tool steel requires proper heat treatment after machining to achieve full hardness and toughness for tooling applications. Consult the material data sheet for recommended hardening and tempering cycles before placing finished parts into service.
