Manufactured to AISI Type O1 specifications, this flat stock measures 0.5 inches thick, 1.5 inches wide, and 18 inches long, weighing 3.87 pounds. O1 tool steel is known for its excellent edge retention and machinability in the annealed state, making it a standard choice for cutting tools, punches, dies, and gauges. Thickness tolerance is held to plus or minus 0.001 inches, supporting close-tolerance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flat stock is suited for job shops, tool-and-die operations, and maintenance shops requiring precise raw material stock. It is commonly used to fabricate custom tooling, jigs, fixtures, and blades. The 18-inch length provides enough material for multiple cuts on short tooling components. Width tolerance is plus 0.005 inches and minus 0.000 inches, and length tolerance is plus 0.25 inches. Edge squareness is held to 0.003 per inch of thickness, and end squareness to 0.004 per inch of thickness, meeting standard tool steel flat bar tolerances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAISI Type O1 oil-hardening tool steel construction for reliable heat-treat response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness held to plus or minus 0.001 inches for close-tolerance machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth tolerance of plus 0.005 inches and minus 0.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge squareness of 0.003 per inch of thickness; end squareness of 0.004 per inch of thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength tolerance of plus 0.25 inches from nominal 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs 3.87 pounds — suitable for bench stock in small to mid-size tooling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard AISI O1 oil-hardening tool steel flat bar suitable for use in tool-and-die, fixture fabrication, and general machining applications requiring oil-quench heat treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMachining and grinding of O1 tool steel should be performed by qualified machinists or tool-and-die makers using appropriate cutting fluids and wheel dressings. When heat treating, follow AISI O1 austenitizing and oil-quench procedures using calibrated furnace equipment. Always wear appropriate PPE when cutting, grinding, or heat treating. Confirm final dimensions after machining and before hardening, as distortion can occur during the quench cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI Type O1 Oil Hardening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus or minus 0.001 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.005 inches, minus 0.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Squareness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.003 per inch of thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Squareness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.004 per inch of thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.87 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31231200\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: NS06132153\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692730319154,"sku":"NS06132153","price":141.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0bd010a1cae711f9686084786dbdb869_47540a7e-a440-4135-925e-b5f99125e0b1.jpg?v=1788301858","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ns06132153-o1-tool-steel-flat-stock","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
