The newest Reamtec easyZERO runout compensation nuts from Monaghan Tooling (Dayton, OH) allow for up to 0.002 inches (0.050 mm) runout to be quickly and easily dialed in. Users can correct runout errors and misalignment for all round tools using ER collets in minutes with virtually no scrap.
The replacement nuts feature six adjustment screws that allow for more accurate machining, creating parts tighter to tolerance and with better surface finishes, especially on difficult parts. By controlling runout, users spend less time tapping and resetting tools and collets, which increases production capability, saves time, and reduces scrap and out-of-tolerance parts. Concentric cutting equally distributes the chip load, leading to longer tool life and lower tool cost for reamers, drills, end mills, and round tools.
Five sizes are compatible with collet chucks sizes ER16 to ER40. The Reamtec easyZERO nut can be purchased along with a Hex Key, a spanner, and an ER collet in four kit options.
