The VC Holder produces exceptional gripping torque, run-out accuracy and cutting rigidity. This high performance tool excels in gripping end mills during high-speed rotation, making it especially suitable for finishing operations for die/mold machining. It is pre-balanced for speeds of up to 40,000 RPM and has coolant-thru capabilities.

US Patent 7036400B2, 7181998B2

GH Handle
