Pin Vise Toolholders

October 01, 2011

Brush Research Manufacturing Co. Inc.'s new pin vises offer a secure method of holding small diameter miniature deburring brushes when stem diameters are too small for chucking in automated machines. Using pin vises for holding miniature brushes reduces operator fatigue and improves efficiency. Two styles are available.

Model PV460 is double ended, has a hexagonal locking collet and comes with 2 reversible 4-jaw chucks for ultimate versatility. Model PV467 offers a unique swivel action that allows for precise and consistent control during deburring and finishing operations. The new pin vises are nickel plated and made from solid brass and provide a durable, solid method for holding miniature deburring brushes.
