Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 950-11011 is an AXA Series No. 2 turning and facing tool post holder designed for use on manual engine lathes with a swing of 12 inches or under. It accepts tool bits ranging from 3/16 inch to 1/2 inch and is built for standard turning and facing operations. The holder measures 1.5 inches in overall height and 3.15 inches in overall length, with a centerline height of 15/16 inch and a 7/16 inch shank. At 0.4 pounds, it is a compact, solid holder suited for light-duty to mid-range lathe work. Licensed machinists and skilled trade workers performing manual turning operations are the primary installers and users of this tooling.

This tool post holder is intended for use on lathes with up to 12 inches of swing, making it appropriate for smaller engine lathes commonly found in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and trade training environments. It is sized for the AXA quick-change tool post system, which is a standard configuration for lathes in this swing range. The No. 2 designation identifies it as a turning and facing holder within the AXA series lineup. It does not include through-coolant capability.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or trained trade professional. Always bring the lathe to a complete stop and disconnect power before mounting or adjusting tool post holders. Torque the holder to the tool post per the tool post manufacturer's guidelines. Verify centerline height alignment before beginning any cutting operation to avoid tool deflection or workpiece damage.
