QCTP Holders

G K
 

Afternoon,

I just recently acquired a QCTP (Phase 2 250-100) for my SB9c that came with a few holders.  250-202, 250-207, and 250-110.  I will be needing additional holders, but am confused on what model to get.  From what i have found the 250-100 holder is AXA and will work on a 9-inch lathe.  However, what I have also found is the the 250-202 holder is actually for a BXA post, which is too big for a 9-inch lathe.  Will either or the 250-202 or 250-101 work on the 9-inch SB?  What size/designation should I be shopping for, and where would you guys suggest I look?

Thanks,

Greg

        The difference between a 201 vs a 202 is the 202 has a V cut in the bottom of the tool slot so you could also hold a boring bar or a round tool . Keep in mind if you have a 202 holder you cant use the smaller tool bits cause they will teeter in the groove .

The 250-2XX would be a BXA & would be for a larger lathe .

        Here's a page with all the dimensions of the 4 main sizes of QCTP's https://www.ctctools.biz/quick-change-toolpost-set-6pcs-wedge-type-l137/

        I bought my AXA wedge type  QCTP for my SB 9A from CDCO Machinery  http://www.cdcotools.com/ . Depending on where you get one , If you have the  $$ when you order you might want to get some extra tool holders with that purchase  the freight will be some cheaper then buying then separately .
