Precision Ground Flat Stock (18")

The dimensional stability of ground flat stock combines with other useful characteristics including excellent resistance to cracking during heat treatment compared with other, more highly alloyed, cold work tools. Relatively soft and easy to machine. High wear resistance after heat treatment. Holds a good cutting edge. Suitable for EDM machining.
Typical applications: widely used in precision tools, machine knives, gauges, jigs, templates, punches, dies and machine parts.
The Cost Cutting Stock: extensive range of widths and thicknesses enables the selection of an appropriate size of ground flat stock to minimise material and machining costs.

Steel Shims - Inch Sizes

Silver Steel

For tool room and general engineering. Applications include screwdrivers, punches, shafts, axles, pinions, pins, die posts, instrument parts, model parts, taps and drills for mild steel, engraver tools. High carbon content means that it can be hardened to give high wear resistance and chromium content adds strength and hardness.

Manufactured from
BS1407:1970 grade steel.

Typical hardness:
207-237HB with 285HB maximum.

Tensile strength:
45/55 T.P.S.I. (700/850 N/mm2).

Surface finish:
Better than 0.6 microns (25 micro inch) CLA (Centre Line Average).

Kennedy® Abrasive Wheel Dressers

Conventional abrasive wheels need truing and regularly dressing to maintain a quality grinding performance, Kennedy single point diamond dressing tools have a single industrial diamond embedded in a cylindrical steel shaft they are suitable for performing both of these applications:

Truing is the process of aligning the periphery of the grinding wheel so that it runs concentric with its axis of rotation. This allows accurate and precise relative motion between the grinding wheel and the part being ground.

Dressing removes dulled abrasive and foreign material that has been embedded into the wheel. This allows the wheel to cut properly. Kennedy diamond dressing tools are mainly used to true straight-faced grinding wheels.
