Value Collection CMA2343 Quill Feed Handle Bridgeport

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CMA2343 is a quill feed handle designed as a direct-fit accessory for Bridgeport vertical milling machines. The quill feed handle mounts to the quill feed hub and gives the operator manual control over vertical quill travel during milling, drilling, and boring operations. It features a 1-inch bore and an overall length of 1 inch, making it a compact, purpose-built replacement for worn or missing handles on Bridgeport-style mills. Machining professionals and tool-room technicians rely on this type of handle for repeatable, hands-on quill control. At 1.3 pounds, it is a sturdy unit suited to everyday shop use.

This quill feed handle is intended for use on Bridgeport vertical mills and Bridgeport-compatible milling machines. It is a common service replacement in job shops, tool rooms, vocational training facilities, and maintenance departments where Bridgeport-style knee mills are in regular service. The handle attaches to the quill feed shaft and restores full manual quill operation when an original handle is cracked, stripped, or lost. Installation requires no special tooling beyond basic hand tools available in any machine shop environment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician. Before removing or installing the quill feed handle, power down the milling machine and lock out the main disconnect per applicable LOTO procedures. Secure the quill in position before loosening the existing handle to prevent uncontrolled quill drop. Use appropriate hand tools to seat the bore fully on the feed shaft before tightening any set screws or retaining hardware.
