52mm Self‑Centring Drill Chuck B16 Taper, Heavy‑Duty 35kg, Type 16XHSP - Vertex

Take advantage of the combination of a self-tightening clamping system, a 52 mm capacity and a secure B16 taper interface to ensure reliable, repeatable tool holding on compatible machine spindles. Order the drill chuck directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask Metav's consultants if additional specifications are required.

Vertex 16XHSP self-tightening drill chuck — 52 mm capacity, B16 taper

The 16XHSP self-tightening drill chuck is a robust clamping solution for drilling and light machining tasks on machines fitted with a B16 taper spindle.

• Self-tightening design for steady clamping
• 52 mm maximum jaw opening
• B16 taper for secure spindle connection
• Industrial-grade mass for vibration damping

Secure clamping for consistent machining results

The core advantage of the self-tightening mechanism is a rise in clamping force with spindle rotation, providing consistent clamping force during heavy engagement and high torque transfer. This behaviour reduces the risk of tool slip and improves repeatability across batches, which is essential where hole quality and concentricity matter. The chuck’s 52 mm capacity covers a broad range of drill and tool shank sizes commonly used in maintenance, prototyping and small-series production, delivering a practical balance of versatility and precision.

Straightforward integration with B16 taper spindles

Compatibility is simplified by the standard B16 taper connection, a common interface on many bench and vertical drilling machines. The taper ensures a secure mechanical fit and easy exchange on machines that support this interface. The unit’s inherent mass contributes to stability and dampens chatter, supporting cleaner holes and extended tool life under repeated operation. Where machine alignment and spindle runout are critical, the robust spindle interface helps maintain repeatable centring and dependable torque transmission.

Low-maintenance design built for workshop use

Designed for practical workshop workflows, the chuck’s mechanical simplicity minimises upkeep while preserving performance over time. Fewer moving subcomponents and a self-tightening action reduce the need for frequent adjustments, which is advantageous in busy production or maintenance environments. The construction prioritises industrial durability and straightforward operation, allowing operators to focus on process efficiency and part quality rather than constant clamp management.

FAQ

What maximum shank diameter does the chuck accept?
The 16XHSP self-tightening drill chuck accepts shanks up to 52 mm, covering a wide range of common drill and tool sizes.

Which spindle taper is required for mounting?
A B16 taper spindle is required; the chuck is manufactured for secure fitting to B16 interfaces and reliable torque transmission.

Is the chuck suitable for demanding or repetitive work?
With its substantial mass and self-tightening action, the chuck offers stability and consistent clamping suitable for repetitive drilling and workshop tasks.

How does the self-tightening mechanism improve safety and precision?
The self-tightening design increases clamping force with spindle rotation, reducing the likelihood of slippage and improving concentricity and repeatability during machining.

What maintenance is needed to keep the chuck functional?
Routine cleaning and occasional lubrication are typically sufficient; the simple mechanical design of the 16XHSP reduces maintenance frequency compared with more complex clamping systems.

Can this chuck be used on milling machines as well as drills?
The chuck is primarily intended for drilling and light machining where a B16 taper spindle is present; suitability for specific milling operations depends on the machine’s spindle specifications and the application’s torque demands.
