Value Collection SR06.0X1 Tool Steel Round S-7 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SR06.0X1 is a decarburization-free tool steel round bar cut from S-7 shock-resisting tool steel. It measures 6 inches in diameter and 1 inch in overall length, with a diameter tolerance of +0.065 to +0.125 inches and a length tolerance of +0.250 to -0.000 inches. The decarb-free surface condition means the outer layer retains full hardness potential without a soft skin, reducing the need for extra stock removal before heat treat. This round is a stock-length piece suited for toolmakers, die makers, machinists, and maintenance shops that need a ready-to-machine S-7 blank.

S-7 Hi-Shock tool steel is widely specified for punches, chisels, forming dies, and other impact tooling where toughness and shock resistance are the primary design requirement. This 6-inch diameter round is appropriate for large-diameter tooling blanks, heavy-duty punches, or custom die components machined in a job shop or in-house tool room setting. The stock-length format allows fabricators to machine directly to finished dimensions without sawing down longer bar stock. Each piece ships as a single unit with a package quantity of one.

Key Features

• Decarb-free surface preserves full hardness potential through the outer layer, reducing pre-machining stock removal
• S-7 Hi-Shock material grade delivers high toughness and impact resistance for demanding tooling applications
• Diameter tolerance of +0.065 to +0.125 inches provides consistent oversize stock for finish grinding or turning
• Length tolerance of +0.250 to -0.000 inches ensures minimum length is always met on stock cuts
• Stock-length format ready for direct machining without additional saw-cutting from long bar
• Weight per foot of 100.40 pounds supports accurate material estimation for multi-piece projects

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose tool steel blank for use in toolmaking, die making, and maintenance machining applications requiring S-7 shock-resisting tool steel in large-diameter round bar form.

Installation Notes

Machining of tool steel rounds should be performed by qualified machinists using appropriate cutting tools rated for tool steel. Follow the material supplier heat-treatment guidelines for S-7 tool steel when hardening is required; austenitizing temperature, quench media, and tempering cycles are material-critical and should not be estimated. Secure the workpiece firmly in a lathe chuck or fixture before any cutting operation. Allow the bar to reach shop ambient temperature before taking final dimension measurements if it has been stored in a cold environment.
