Tool Steel Drill Rod O1 offers excellent dimensional stability during heat treatment, and otherwise decent attributes. O1 is an oil-hardening, general purpose tool steel. While not as strong or wear resistant as A-2 or D-2, it experiences significantly less distortion during the heat treating process. It is typically used in rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges.

The O1 tool steel drill rod is ideal for rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges due to its excellent dimensional stability during heat treatment and general-purpose oil-hardening properties.

This drill rod is precision ground and available in standard lengths of 36, 72, and 144 inches. However, the product data indicates no custom cut warehouse availability, so custom cutting options may be limited.

O1 tool steel drill rod offers a high machinability rating of 95, making it easier to machine compared to harder tool steels like A-2 or D-2, which are stronger but less machinable.

Yes, an MTR is available for this product, ensuring traceability and compliance with quality standards.

The drill rod is in stock and ships at weights of approximately 0.39 lb for 36 inches, 0.77 lb for 72 inches, and 1.56 lb for 144 inches, providing flexible options depending on your project size.
