Drill rod stock in O-1 grade is a general-purpose tool steel known for its machinability and ability to achieve high hardness after oil quench heat treatment. This rod measures 0.172 inches (11\/64 inch) in diameter and 36 inches in overall length, weighing approximately 0.234 pounds. It is commonly used by macinist shops, toolmakers, and metalworking professionals to fabricate punches, dies, pins, gauges, and custom tooling blanks that require a hardened finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO-1 oil hardening drill rod is suited for toolroom and production applications where consistent diameter tolerance and a smooth surface finish are needed before heat treat. Typical uses include fabricating drill jigs, fixture pins, arbors, and hand tools in both job shop and industrial maintenance environments. The 36-inch length allows for multiple parts to be cut from a single piece of stock, making it efficient for small-batch toolmaking work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eO-1 grade tool steel with oil hardening temper for high post-quench hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter of 0.172 inches (11\/64 inch) for precision toolroom applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-inch overall length provides ample stock for multiple cutoff parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGround finish typical of drill rod stock for close-tolerance fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachinable in the annealed state prior to heat treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose O-1 tool steel drill rod blank suitable for toolroom fabrication, punch and die work, fixture pinning, and similar metalworking applications requiring oil hardening stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCutting and grinding of tool steel rod should be performed with appropriate metalworking equipment; carbide tooling or abrasive cutoff wheels are recommended. Heat treatment to final hardness should be performed by a qualified heat treater following established oil quench procedures for O-1 grade steel. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and heat-resistant gloves when cutting or heat treating this material. Always deburr cut ends before use in fixtures or tooling assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: O-1 Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTempering Medium\u003c\/strong\u003e: O-1 (Oil Hardening)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.172 inches (11\/64 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.234 pounds\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: O1D11646\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51719082770738,"sku":"O1D11646","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d1fb4d709607ac69d15e8deda2b480a0.jpg?v=1788557327","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-o1d11646-o-1-drill-rod-11-64-in-tool-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
