It features a 45-degree angle radius and a high-torque design, making it suitable for demanding cutting applications where secure tool clamping is critical. The knob measures 0.5905 inches in knob diameter, 2.3622 inches in overall length, and weighs 0.25 pounds. Style C geometry provides consistent pull-stud engagement across compatible BT40 spindle systems. Installation is performed by CNC machinists and toolroom technicians during tool holder assembly and changeover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis retention knob is used in CNC milling and machining center applications that utilize BT40 taper spindles. It is suited for both production and job-shop environments where reliable tool holder retention is required. The M16x2 threaded interface engages the drawbar mechanism inside the spindle, and the through-coolant feature is not present on this model, making it appropriate for dry or external coolant setups. Flange thickness is 1.1024 inches with a knob-to-flange length of 1.3779 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBT40 taper size for compatibility with standard BT40 spindle systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-torque design for secure clamping under heavy cutting loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45-degree angle radius pull-stud geometry, Style C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM16x2 thread size for drawbar engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo through-coolant passage — suitable for external coolant applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact neck diameter of 0.3937 inches for clearance in tight spindle interfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with BT40 taper tool holders and CNC machining center spindles that accept a Style C, M16x2 retention knob with a 45-degree angle radius pull-stud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRetention knobs are installed by CNC machinists or toolroom personnel using the appropriate spanner wrench or retention knob installation tool. The spindle must be powered down and the drawbar disengaged before removing or installing any retention knob. Follow the tool holder manufacturer torque guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures. Do not over-torque the retention knob, as this can distort the tool holder taper and degrade spindle accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: BT40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M16x2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngle Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5905 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3937 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePilot Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6693 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob to Flange Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3779 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1024 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.3622 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThrough Coolant\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 88.601.40.AP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747104260402,"sku":"88.601.40.AP","price":36.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e6e76ec7f8c732c68f3a1ede01995b54.jpg?v=1788876142","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-88-601-40-ap-bt40-retention-knob-high-torque-style-c","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
