Kurt ToolBlox feature an open-cage design weighing 30 percent less than a solid tombstone with aluminum subplates, making easier handling for the CNC machine table and shuttle systems. The ToolBlox class 30 gray iron iron construction continues to provide the vibration damping for a rigid setup even compared to much heavier tombstone alternatives.

Each Toolblox face features premachined bolt holes and dowel pattern for quick change of all components with repeatability to 0.0002”. Optional hole patterns and keyways can be specified at time of order. Kurt PinLock mounting system can also be used in combination with ToolBlox to secure to machine tables or with Kurt fixture plates and workholding devices to make mounting even faster, and in less than a minute.

Kurt ToolBlox come in either two-face or four-face configuration and available in standard base sizes of 400mm or 500mm. ToolBlox can be purchased separately or with a variety of vises, workholding systems, subplates and quick-change mounting systems.

For powered clamping applications, ToolBlox open-cage design provides a convenient internal location for mounting hydraulic and pneumatic plumbing and components. Kurt has a variety of hydraulic pumps for both single-acting or double-acting systems.
