Vertex 16XHSP Self‑Tightening Drill Chuck, Ø 52 mm, B18 taper

The 16XHSP self‑tightening drill chuck provides reliable clamping for heavy‑duty drilling applications on machines fitted with a B18 taper, optimised for secure tool retention and straightforward integration.

• Self‑tightening keyless design
• 52 mm clamping capacity
• B18 taper mount
• Robust industrial construction

Secure clamping for consistent machining

The self‑tightening mechanism converts spindle torque into axial clamping force, providing a reliable grip on round and hex shank tools without additional keying. This reduces slippage during high‑torque tasks and improves hole quality by maintaining concentricity. For workshops requiring repeatable, measurable results, the clamping behaviour helps to lower scrap rates and rework. The design also shortens tool change cycles, which supports higher throughput on production machines.

Compatibility and stable machine integration

Mounting via the B18 taper ensures a firm interface with compatible drill spindles; the taper form is a common standard for many bench and floor drilling rigs and simplifies retrofit installations. The chuck’s 52 mm nominal diameter defines its maximum usable tool shank, enabling larger drills and adapters where increased hole sizes are needed. The unit’s mass contributes to rotational stability, reducing chatter and improving finish on demanding operations while preserving spindle bearings by distributing load predictably.

Built for workshop reliability and low maintenance

Constructed for industrial environments, the chuck emphasises durability and serviceability: hardened contact surfaces and straightforward mechanical layout reduce wear and permit long intervals between maintenance checks. The robust build minimises the risk of unplanned downtime and supports continuous operation in light‑to‑heavy production contexts. As a Vertex component, the product aligns with an established supply chain and quality control processes, offering a trustworthy solution for precision clamping tasks.
