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 commonly used for rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges due to its excellent dimensional stability during heat treatment and general-purpose tool steel properties.

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

O1 Tool Steel offers decent strength and wear resistance but is not as strong or wear resistant as A-2 or D-2 steels. It is favored for experiencing significantly less distortion during heat treatment.

Yes, an MTR report is available for this product, providing detailed certification of its material properties.

The O1 Tool Steel Drill Rod has a high machinability rating of 95, making it easier to machine compared to many other tool steels, which facilitates efficient fabrication and finishing.
