Features:
Short design and low weight. Designed to hold Quick Change tap adaptors with or without safety clutch.
Length compensation acting on compression and expansion to compensate for differences between spindle feed and pitch of thread.
The chuck is equipped with pressure point mechanism to increase the cutting pressure to ensure positive start when tapping cycle commences.
Quick Change feature is being actuated by means of length compensation, which has to be completely compressed to change adaptors, chucks sizes 3, 4 and 5 can also be disengaged by pulling out the length compensation acting on expansion.
