The notch-free nut design of our Mega Micro Chuck prevents vibration a for superior balance and concentricity. It not only eliminates whistling nois splattering, but also assures increased strength of the nut itself. The sup design of the body offers added strength for micro end milling, and reduce in long reach applications.
