Value Collection 418-4530 Cast Iron Angle Plate 7x4.5x5.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 418-4530 is a single cast iron angle plate used for fixturing, inspection, and machining setups on surface plates, milling machines, and layout tables. It measures 7 inches wide, 4.5 inches deep, and 5.5 inches high and weighs 12.07 pounds. The plate is partially machined and features through-slots on its surface for clamping versatility. A webbed construction reduces weight while maintaining rigidity. Machinists, tool and die makers, and general metalworking shops use this type of plate when a right-angle reference surface is needed for holding workpieces during milling, drilling, or inspection operations.

This angle plate is suited for metalworking environments where a reliable 90-degree reference is required. The slotted plate design allows standard T-bolts and strap clamps to secure workpieces or the plate itself to a machine table or surface plate. Its single-plate configuration fits setups where one reference face is sufficient. The partially machined finish provides functional mating surfaces without the added cost of a fully ground plate, making it appropriate for general-purpose fixturing and layout work in job shops and production environments.

Key Features

• Cast iron construction provides rigidity and vibration damping during machining and inspection setups
• Through-slots on the plate surface accept T-bolts and strap clamps for flexible workholding
• Webbed design reduces overall weight while preserving structural strength
• Partially machined finish delivers functional reference surfaces for general-purpose use
• Single-plate configuration for straightforward right-angle fixturing applications
• Weighs 12.07 pounds, offering a stable base without excessive mass

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose cast iron angle plate compatible with standard milling machine tables, surface plates, and layout fixtures that accept T-bolt and strap clamp workholding systems.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup of this angle plate is typically performed by machinists or tool and die technicians. Ensure the machine table or surface plate is clean and free of chips or burrs before seating the angle plate to maintain accurate reference geometry. Use appropriate T-bolts and strap clamps rated for the clamping load required. Verify squareness with a precision square or dial indicator before securing workpieces for critical operations.
