Value Collection 63323026 Drill Blank 1/64 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 63323026 is a high speed steel drill blank ground to a 1/64 inch (0.0156 inch) diameter with a 3/4 inch overall length. Drill blanks are unfluted cylindrical rods held to tight dimensional tolerances, used as raw stock for custom tooling, gauge pins, punch blanks, and precision location work. This blank carries a bright uncoated finish and a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0003 inch, making it suitable for applications that require a close undersized fit. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians working with precision fixtures are the primary users.

This blank is suited for use in tool rooms, machine shops, and maintenance departments where custom cutting tools or locating pins must be ground to final geometry. Its small diameter makes it appropriate for fine-tolerance work such as wire EDM setups, custom reamers, or inspection aids. The 3/4 inch length is compact enough for close-quarter tooling applications where a longer blank would be impractical.

Key Features

• Diameter: 0.0156 inch (1/64 inch) with a tight tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0003 inch
• Overall length: 3/4 inch for compact tooling applications
• High speed steel construction for hardness and wear resistance during grinding and use
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating to interfere with post-grinding surface dimensions
• Sold individually — one blank per package

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose high speed steel drill blank suitable for tool room and machining applications requiring a 1/64 inch diameter unfluted rod ground to close tolerances.

Installation Notes

Drill blanks are raw stock and require grinding to final tool geometry before use as cutting tools. Secure the blank properly in a tool post grinder or surface grinder to prevent deflection during grinding operations. Wear appropriate eye protection when grinding high speed steel. Handle small-diameter blanks carefully to avoid bending or surface damage prior to use.
