Techniks 32400/INC1 Tapping Chuck Straight Shank 9/16 in

Product Description

The TECHNIKS 32400/INC1 is a tension and compression tapping chuck designed for use in CNC machining centers and rigid tapping applications. It features a 1 inch straight shank and a maximum tap capacity of 9/16 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of tapping operations. With a projection of 1.76 inches and a non-quick-change design, this chuck provides a stable, direct connection between the spindle and tap holder. It is installed and serviced by machinists and CNC setup technicians working in production and job-shop environments.

This tapping chuck is intended for use in vertical and horizontal machining centers that require tension and compression float to compensate for minor feed-rate deviations during tapping cycles. The straight shank interfaces directly with compatible toolholders or spindle connections. Collet capacity ranges from No. 0 and No. 6 on the minimum end up to 9/16 inches imperial and M14 metric on the maximum end, covering a broad range of tap shank sizes used in general machining work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the chuck. Ensure the shank bore and mating surfaces are clean and free of chips or burrs before seating the chuck. Verify tap collet size matches the tap shank before beginning a tapping cycle.
