Powerful and affordable motion control at last!


 
Most of the work accomplished on the milling machine can be accomplished with one of the miniature series cutters.  These cutters have standard shank diameters of 3/16" (4.8mm) or 1/4" (6.4mm).  However, there may be times when you will want to use a standard end mill with a 3/8" (9.5mm) diameter shank.  These cutters are more readily available than the miniature series of cutters and are actually less expensive in many cases.  Also, special purpose cutters such as those designed for cutting key slots, dovetails and corner radii usually have 3/8" diameter shanks.  The 3/8" END MILL HOLDER will increase the versatility of your milling machine by enabling you to hold these popular cutters.  (CAUTION!  Always consider power and size limitations of your equipment when using larger cutters.  You may want to reduce cutter speed).

Because of the ease fo use of this type of cutter holder and the fact that they allow the use of longer or double-ended end mills, we have also made them available for 1/4" and 3/16" diameter cutters as well.  The 1/4" End Mill Holder is P/N 6079 and the 3/16" End Mill Holder is P/N 6080.  For those working with metric tools, the most common size is 10mm, so we also offer a 10mm End Mill Holder as P/N 3078.
