Aloris CXA-10 Knurling Turning Facing Lathe Tool Post Holder

Product Description

The ALORIS CXA-10 is a knurling, turning, and facing tool post holder designed for use on lathes with a swing range of 13 to 18 inches. Built for the CXA series quick-change tool post system, it accepts tool bits ranging from 1/2 to 3/4 inches and supports cutting tools up to 3-1/8 inches. The overall height is 2 inches, with a centerline height of 1-3/16 inches. This holder is installed and used by machinists and toolroom technicians in production and job-shop environments where consistent, repeatable tool positioning is required.

The CXA-10 is suited for mid-size engine lathes and toolroom lathes with swings from 13 to 18 inches. Typical applications include knurling operations, general turning, and facing cuts where a rigid, repeatable tool holder setup is needed. It integrates with the CXA series quick-change tool post system, allowing fast tool changes without re-indicating centerline height between setups.
