Value Collection EPLX220BN Knurl Wheel 1/2 in 20 Tpi Diagonal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION EPLX220BN is a beveled face knurl wheel designed for form knurling operations on a lathe or knurling tool holder. It is manufactured from cobalt and features a ferritic nitrocarburizing finish for added surface hardness and wear resistance. The wheel produces a left-hand diagonal pattern at 20 TPI with an included tooth angle of 90 degrees and a helix angle of 30 degrees. With 27 teeth and a 1/2 inch diameter, this EP-series wheel delivers consistent, repeatable knurls on turned workpieces. It is installed and used by machinists and CNC lathe operators working in production or toolroom environments.

This knurl wheel is suited for creating diagonal knurl patterns on round stock in turning and boring applications. The beveled face geometry and EP series designation make it appropriate for use with compatible EP-style knurling tool holders. It is typically used in job shops, production machine shops, and toolroom settings where controlled surface texture is required on handles, fasteners, or other turned components. The left-hand diagonal pattern pairs with a right-hand wheel to produce a diamond pattern when used in combination.

Key Features

• Beveled face geometry for form-style knurling on turned parts
• Left-hand diagonal tooth pattern, 20 TPI circular pitch with 27 teeth
• Cobalt construction with ferritic nitrocarburizing finish for wear resistance
• 90 degree included tooth angle and 30 degree helix angle for consistent knurl impression
• EP series designation for use with compatible EP-style knurling tool holders
• Compact wheel dimensions suitable for close-clearance turning setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement knurl wheel for EP-series knurling tool holders used in lathe-based form knurling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. The machine spindle and all moving axes must be powered down and locked out before mounting or removing knurl wheels. The wheel mounts through its center hole onto the knurling tool holder pin or axle; verify that the hole diameter and wheel diameter match the tool holder specifications before installing. Do not exceed the tool holder or lathe manufacturer's recommended feed rate or depth of penetration for the wheel diameter in use.
