Quick-Change Carbide Insert Tool Holder
This holder is not included with the Quick-Change Tool Post System (P/N 2250) but is available separately for users who want to take advantage of the enhanced cutting performance offered by carbide tools. The holder includes one 55° carbide insert with two cutting edges, secured by a small screw. A Torx wrench for tightening the screw is also provided.
Like the Quick-Change Tool Post and other dovetailed holders in the system, this inserted tip holder is made from case-hardened steel with a black oxide finish for durability and corrosion resistance.
