Dorian Tool 73310101250 Bxa No.1 Turning Facing Holder

Product Description

The DORIAN TOOL 73310101250 is a BXA Series No. 1 Turning and Facing Holder designed for use on engine lathes with a swing range of 13 to 15 inches. It mounts to a BXA-style quick-change tool post and securely positions turning and facing tools at the correct centerline height. The holder measures 3.25 inches in overall length and 2.25 inches in overall height, with a centerline height of 1.3125 inches. It accepts cutting tools up to 1 inch in cross-section. Machinists and tool room operators install this holder as part of a quick-change tooling setup to reduce tool changeover time and maintain repeatable cutting geometry.

This holder is suited for manual and semi-production lathe work in job shops, maintenance shops, and tool rooms. It fits lathes in the 13 to 15 inch swing class, which covers a wide range of mid-size engine lathes commonly found in trade and industrial environments. The BXA series is a standard quick-change size for this class of machine. No through-coolant feature is included, making it appropriate for dry cutting or flood-coolant setups where coolant is applied externally. Machinists setting up turning or facing operations will find the 1-inch maximum tool capacity suitable for a broad range of HSS and carbide insert toolholders.
