Value Collection 400-0000 T-slot Cleaner

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 400-0000 is a T-slot cleaner designed to remove chips, debris, and built-up contamination from the T-slots of machine tables, milling fixtures, and workholding surfaces. The tool features a zinc-plated chromate finish that provides corrosion resistance during storage and regular shop use. At 0.12 pounds, it is a lightweight hand tool suited for routine machine table maintenance. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and general shop personnel use this cleaner to keep T-slots clear and free of interference before mounting vises, clamps, or other workholding equipment.

This T-slot cleaner is appropriate for use on standard machine tool tables found in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance environments. It is used during machine setup and between operations to clear slot debris that can prevent proper seating of T-nuts and bolts. The tool is a practical addition to any toolbox where manual machine table maintenance is performed regularly.
