Anti-Pull System Prevents Cutter Slippage
The secuRgrip anti-pull system from Rego-Fix locks the collet and cutter to the toolholder body to avoid cutter slippage during demanding metal removal applications.
The secuRgrip anti-pull system from Rego-Fix locks the collet and cutter to the toolholder body to avoid cutter slippage during demanding metal removal applications. The small, profiled locking key insert is placed into the flat of an industry-standard Weldon-type end mill. Then the end mill is screwed into a collet with the same thread pattern. The collet assembly is pressed together using the Rego-Fix powRgrip mini-press, and then a small retaining cap is added to the outside of the holder to secure the collet.
The system has a TIR of 0.0001" and works with existing standard carbide and HSS end mill designs. The locking key insert of the secuRgrip system is compatible with standard ground notches found on Weldon-type end mills. Manufacturers can preset tool heights and modify existing powRgrip holders for use with the system. It is compatible with Rego-Fix’s PG 25 or PG 32 holders in all tapers including CAT, BT, TC, HSK, CAPTO and dual-contact Rego Plus.
