Product Description

A quick acting scissor type knurling tool holder for manual lathes, used to press a textured pattern into a workpiece surface for grip or decorative finish. The scissor action closes evenly from both sides of the work, reducing strain on the lathe spindle, bearings, leadscrew, compound slide, and centres compared to conventional knurling tools, and produces clean, sharp knurling with virtually no double tracking. Supplied complete with 3/4" medium diamond hardened steel knurls, pre-installed and ready to use. With a working capacity of 1/16" to 2-1/4" and a compact 1/2" shank that fits standard tool posts, it's built for fast, easy setup on shafts, handles, knobs, and other precision components.
