Erickson™ Taper Face Contact Shank Tooling System

BTKV40 Series

Erickson Taper Face BT Contact Taper Tooling is manufactured from premium materials and to the latest

JIS B 6339 specification standard with an AT3 7/24 Taper per IS0-1974. Controlled, increased flange

thickness to the rear of the flange gains face contact between spindle and holder. The BTKV40 tools

are prebalanced to a high specification that will perform effectively up to 20,000 RPM. For any

applications higher than 20,000 RPM, WIDIA™ recommends that the complete toolholder assembly

(toolholder, retention knobs, collets, hardware, and cutting tools) be balanced as one identity.
