Hardened Undersized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own jobbers'-length drill bits. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

Hardened Oversized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods
- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
Also known as reamer blanks, these rods have an oversized diameter that allows for finishing to your exact requirements. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.

Round Head Full-Groove Dowel Pins
A head gives these grooved pins a finished appearance and distributes loads over a wider area than headless pins. The grooves pinch shut when pressed into a hole, creating tension to lock pins in place. For the best fit, the hole should be equal to diameter (A). The end is chamfered for easy insertion.
Pins meet ASME B18.8.2 specifications for material and dimensions. They're made of zinc-plated steel for good strength and some corrosion resistance.
