Value Collection 418-4340 Cast Iron Angle Plate 10x10x10

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 418-4340 is a standard machined cast iron angle plate used in precision metalworking, inspection, and fixturing applications. The plate features a flat surface ground and machined to close tolerances, with a double web design for rigidity under load. It measures 10 inches wide, 10 inches deep, and 10 inches high, and weighs 62 pounds. Parallelism is held to 0.0050 inch and squareness to 0.0036 inch, making it suitable for layout work, surface plate setups, and milling or grinding operations that require a reliable 90-degree reference.

This angle plate is intended for machine shop and toolroom environments. It is used when a workpiece must be held square to a surface plate or machine table during inspection, layout, or light machining. The single-plate, double web construction keeps the unit stable without adding unnecessary bulk. At 62 pounds, it is heavy enough to resist shifting during setup on a surface plate or machine table without requiring permanent mounting.

Key Features

• Flat surface finish machined to close tolerances for accurate referencing
• Double web design provides rigidity and resistance to deflection under clamping load
• Parallelism of 0.0050 inch for consistent surface-to-surface registration
• Squareness of 0.0036 inch for reliable 90-degree workpiece positioning
• Single plate configuration suited to individual setup and inspection tasks
• Cast iron construction dampens vibration and resists wear over repeated use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose angle plate for use on standard surface plates, milling machine tables, and grinding machine tables in machine shop and inspection room applications.

Installation Notes

Angle plates are installed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Clean the mating surfaces of both the angle plate and the surface plate or machine table before positioning to ensure full contact. Secure workpieces to the plate using T-slot clamps, strap clamps, or magnetic fixturing appropriate to the application. At 62 pounds, use proper lifting technique or mechanical assistance when moving the plate to avoid injury.
