New revisions on the design include: 7075 Aluminum, As strong as the 12L14 Steel Version 1 but half the weight. Flats milled to allow used of 7/8" wrench for tightening (Works with the Taig coloum wrench). MIL Spec Hardcoat anodizing for complete corrosion resistance, abrasions resistance and surface strength. These will look great decades down the road. Stainless Steel Setscrew for end mill lockdown, 100% corrosion resistance. All Spindle threading and axial boring and reaming operations done in one CNC Setup to ensure maximum concentricity. .0005" Concentricity. These Version 2.0 End Mill Holders are unlike anyhting else out there. Light weight aluminum alloy yet as strong as the 12L14 Steel used on Version 1.0. Hardcoat anodized now for corrosion resistant long life finish. Machined to use 7/8 open end wrench for tightening to spindle. Availible in 1/2", 3/8", 1/4", 3/16" 1/8" and 7/8"x20 tpi boring head adaptor, also availible is a custom 7/8 aluminum wrench that will prevent any damage to the end mill holders while tightening. These high tolerance parts make it easy for those of you that need to do lots of tool changes for your Taig CNC machining. Only having one tool holder will require zeroing in the next tool. This takes time. With multiple tool holders and tool height offsets that can be used in a lot of today's CAD/CAM systems it is only a matter of seconds to go from one tool to the next. Go straight from the 1/2" roughing end mill to clear out a pocket to a 1/8" fine pass end mill to clean up, on to peck drill a series of 12 1/4" blind holes and one last tool change to chamfer the holes and the edge of the freshly machined pocket. Time saved on just this one part? 10 min? What about when you need to make 10 of these parts? 100? End mill holders screw right on to the Taig and Sherline Mill and lathe Spindle.
