Value Collection 60510 M2 Hss Drill Rod 5/32 in 36 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 60510 is an M2 high speed steel drill rod measuring 5/32 inch in diameter and 36 inches in length. Drill rods of this type serve as precision-ground, unhardened or hardened stock used for making punches, pins, tool shanks, and other custom tooling components. M2 high speed steel offers a strong balance of hardness, wear resistance, and toughness, making it well suited for machining and fabrication applications where dimensional accuracy and material integrity are critical. Machinists, toolmakers, and metalworking professionals typically work with this stock in job shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments.

This drill rod is appropriate for general metalworking and toolmaking applications where a small-diameter, round steel blank is required. The 5/32 inch diameter suits applications calling for fine punches, alignment pins, or small-diameter tool blanks. At 36 inches long, the rod can be cut to length as needed for individual tooling projects. It is commonly used in machine shops, toolrooms, and industrial maintenance settings where custom tooling fabrication is part of regular operations.

Key Features

• 36 inch length allows multiple pieces to be cut from a single rod
• Round cross-section stock for use as raw material in custom tooling production
• Consistent diameter supports accurate fitment in precision tooling setups

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose M2 high speed steel drill rod suitable for toolmaking and metalworking applications requiring 5/32 inch diameter round steel stock.

Installation Notes

This product is raw tooling stock and is handled by machinists and toolmakers using standard metalworking equipment such as lathes, mills, and cutoff saws. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when cutting or machining steel rod. Secure the workpiece properly before any cutting or grinding operation. Consult applicable shop safety standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines before working with high speed steel stock.
