Mechanical arbors, chucks handle applications with high forces

Euro-Tech Corp. offers MyTec mechanical arbors and chucks with accuracy to 0.0004 in. and expansion rates up to 0.010 in. or more in a stainless steel construction. The arbors and chucks are suitable for workholding in applications that incur high forces or in auto-load applications in which high clearance is required.

A closed expansion system, which is impervious to dirt and chips, combines with high wear resistance to help contribute to long service life. If space permits, Hydra expansion elements are equipped with an adjustment piston to allow expansion to be set for fine clamping, particularly for thin-walled workpieces, to prevent deformation.

Tools have a hardness of 56 HRC, with a center hardness of 64 HRC. An optional highly wear-resistant coating may be applied for a surface hardness of 80 HRC.
