The trained staff at Ohio Broach also offer precision sharpening, reconditioning, and repair of broaching tools, plus brazing, straightening, or re-coating, depending on what the customer needs. Proper broaching tool sharpening is a must for maintaining accurate cuts and machining good products. The company can easily improve round broaches, key ways, surface broaches, and form broaches made of high-speed steel with sharpening and reconditioning.

The normal waiting time for sharpening assignments is one or two weeks, depending on the number of tools. Coatings like titanium nitride, titanium carbonitride, or titanium aluminum nitride help to extend tool life.
