AXA #1 Quick Change 250-101 Tool Post Facing Holders 5Pcs Black 6-12In

Description

Product Overview

The AXA #1 Quick Change 250‑101 turning and facing holders are engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern machining environments. Each set includes five precision‑machined holders constructed from high‑grade black metal, delivering exceptional rigidity and wear resistance. The design incorporates a secure clamping mechanism that reliably holds square‑diameter tool bits ranging from 3/16 inch to 1/2 inch, eliminating slippage and ensuring consistent tool positioning during high‑speed operations. With a maximum swing radius of 12 inches, these holders provide ample clearance for a wide variety of workpiece sizes, making them suitable for both small‑batch production and large‑scale manufacturing. The compact package dimensions of 7.99 x 7.4 x 3.31 inches and a lightweight of 4.67 pounds per set facilitate easy storage and quick changeovers on the shop floor. Compatibility is guaranteed with AXA tool post models 250‑100 and 250‑111, as well as Dorian, Aloris, and Phase II series, offering versatile integration across multiple machine platforms. The black finish not only adds a professional aesthetic but also contributes to reduced glare and improved visibility of the tool interface during operation.

Usage

These turning and facing holders excel in a variety of machining scenarios, from precision CNC turning to manual lathe work. They are particularly well‑suited for applications that demand rapid tool changes, such as prototype development, short‑run production, and educational settings where flexibility is paramount. The robust construction allows the holders to withstand the forces generated during heavy‑cut turning, while the precise fit ensures that the tool bit remains centered, reducing vibration and extending tool life. Users can confidently employ the holders for machining aluminum, brass, stainless steel, and other common industrial alloys, benefiting from the consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy that AXA’s engineering standards provide. The ergonomic design simplifies installation: simply align the holder with the tool post, tighten the clamping screw, and the tool bit is ready for operation. This streamlined process minimizes downtime, enhances productivity, and supports lean manufacturing principles.

FAQ

What tool bit sizes are compatible with these holders?

The holders are designed to securely clamp square‑diameter tool bits ranging from 3/16 inch (approximately 4.76 mm) up to 1/2 inch (approximately 12.7 mm). This range covers the most common turning and facing tools used in both CNC and manual lathe applications, providing flexibility for a wide variety of machining tasks.

Can these holders be used on both CNC and manual lathes?

Yes, the AXA #1 Quick Change holders are fully compatible with CNC machines as well as traditional manual lathes, provided the machine is equipped with an AXA 250‑100 or 250‑111 tool post. Their robust design tolerates the high speeds and rapid tool changes typical of CNC operations while also offering the ease of use required for manual setups.

How do I install the holders on my tool post?

Installation is straightforward: first, ensure the tool post is clean and free of debris. Align the holder’s mounting face with the post’s slot, insert the holder, and tighten the clamping screw until the holder is firmly seated. After the holder is secured, insert the desired tool bit, tighten the bit’s set screw, and verify that the bit is centered and locked in place before starting the machine.

What warranty or after‑sales support is offered?

All AXA #1 Quick Change holders come with a one‑year limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects. Our technical support team is available to assist with installation questions, compatibility inquiries, and any performance concerns you may encounter. Should a defect arise, we will arrange a replacement or repair in accordance with the warranty terms, ensuring minimal disruption to your production schedule.

Are there any special maintenance requirements?

Routine maintenance is minimal. Periodically inspect the clamping surfaces for wear or debris, and clean with a lint‑free cloth. If the holders are used in a particularly abrasive environment, applying a light coat of machine oil can help preserve the black metal finish and prevent corrosion. Regular checks will help maintain optimal performance and extend the service life of the holders.
