Pair these fixtures with collets to tightly grip workpieces for machining. You can mount them on milling machines, drill presses, and other work surfaces. However, they’re not for use with lathes, grinders, or high-speed rotary tables. All have a through hole to accommodate long workpieces.

Lever fixtures have a handle that can be indexed to any position—no tools required. They’re often used for quickly swapping workpieces in and out, when a simple clamping mechanism is more important than consistent holding force. These fixtures keep the collet stationary while their sleeve clamps. Made from cast iron, they dampen vibration better than steel fixtures, though they’re less durable.

Collet nut fixtures convert ER collets—typically used to hold tool bits—into holders for cylindrical workpieces. The tapered, slit design of the collet distributes clamping force evenly around a workpiece. This creates a stable, consistent grip that keeps your workpiece from shifting, even under 5-axis machining forces. These fixtures are made of steel to withstand the high clamping forces and frequent cycles of production environments.

Square-drive fixtures are designed for precise, repeatable workholding with consistent clamping force. They keep the collet stationary while their sleeve clamps. Made of steel, these fixtures are stronger and more wear resistant than cast iron fixtures, and they can hold up to higher clamping forces. They’re precision machined for accuracy. Use the included socket wrench to clamp and unclamp your workpiece or use a calibrated torque wrench to fine-tune the clamping force.
