Tool Blanks

About Tool Blanks

Tool blanks are ungrounded rods or inserts for subsequent grinding, geometry, and edge design and fabrication. Tool blanks are used with lathe tool grinding in order to undercut the tip of a tool to provide relief so that the metal just below the cutting tip does not contact the work. Tool blanks are the form a piece takes when it has been prepared for turning. In metal cutting, tool blanks are converted into a final product by cutting extra material away using turning, drilling, milling, broaching, boring, and grinding operations.
