Aloris 1-SET Axa Tool Post Holder Set 7 Piece

Product Description

The ALORIS #1-SET is a 7-piece AXA series quick-change tool post holder set designed for engine lathes with a swing capacity of 0 to 12 inches. The set includes a tool post and six individual holders covering the most common turning, boring, and parting operations found in production and job-shop environments. At 13.5 pounds, the set is built to the dimensional standards of the AXA quick-change system, which uses a 9/16-inch bolt hole diameter for secure tool post mounting. Machinists, toolroom operators, and skilled tradespeople install this set on small to mid-size manual lathes where fast, repeatable tool changes are required.

This set is suited for manual engine lathes in the AXA size class, covering machines with a swing of 0 to 12 inches. It provides a foundational complement of holders for general-purpose turning operations, including straight turning, facing, boring, and cut-off work. The seven included pieces allow a machinist to set up multiple operations without individual holder sourcing. It is used in toolrooms, machine shops, maintenance shops, and trade training environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before mounting the tool post or changing any holder, the lathe must be fully powered down and the spindle brought to a complete stop. The tool post is secured to the compound rest using the 9/16-inch bolt hole; verify that the mounting stud and locking nut are properly torqued per the lathe and tool post manufacturer documentation. Confirm tool overhang and center height alignment before resuming cutting operations.
