Value Collection 60214707 S-7 Flat Stock 3/16x2.5x18 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 60214707 is an S-7 tool steel flat stock bar cut to a precise 18-inch length, 2.5-inch width, and 0.1875-inch (3/16 inch) thickness. S-7 is an air- or oil-hardening shock-resistant tool steel known for high toughness and good resistance to impact, making it a common choice for toolmakers, machinists, and die shop technicians. The piece ships as a single bar and weighs approximately 2.59 pounds. Dimensional tolerances are held to plus 0.010 to 0.015 inches on width, thickness, and squareness, providing the predictable stock dimensions required for precision machining and tool-and-die work.

This flat stock is suited for machine shops, tooling fabrication environments, and maintenance departments that need a manageable, ready-to-machine length of shock-resistant tool steel. Typical applications include punches, chisels, driver bits, and similar impact tooling components. The 18-inch bar length is practical for bench work and fits standard tool steel machining workflows without requiring additional cutoff before roughing operations begin.

Installation Notes

S-7 tool steel flat stock is typically processed by machinists and tool-and-die makers using conventional milling, grinding, and EDM equipment. Follow your shop's standard pre-heat and heat-treat procedures appropriate for S-7 grade before hardening. Wear appropriate PPE when cutting or grinding tool steel. Consult the material safety data sheet and applicable shop safety codes before thermal processing.
