INT-16-MT3 drill chuck — integrated, self‑tightening, 57 mm (Vertex)

The INT-16-MT3 is a 57 mm integrated, self‑tightening drill chuck intended for secure tool holding on MT3 taper spindles in workshop and light industrial drilling applications.

• Integrated self-tightening mechanism
• 57 mm maximum clamping diameter
• MT3 taper for direct spindle mounting
• Robust build, approx. 1.9 kg weight

Consistent clamping that reduces rework

The integrated self‑tightening jaw system converts axial feed force into increased jaw pressure, so the clamping action becomes firmer as load rises. This mechanical behaviour reduces the risk of bit slippage under cutting torque and therefore lowers the incidence of scrapped parts or rework. For operations where consistent hole quality and minimal stoppages matter, the chuck’s clamping stability directly supports improved throughput and predictable results.

Fast mounting and reliable alignment for spindle heads

Fitted with a standard MT3 taper, the chuck mounts directly to compatible spindles without additional adapters, shortening setup times and eliminating extra interfaces that can introduce runout. The direct taper connection promotes better repeatability and concentricity, which benefits drilling precision and tool life. For workshops aiming to keep changeover efficient, this direct fit reduces downtime between tool changes and simplifies retention checks.

Durable construction for daily workshop use

Designed with practical workshop demands in mind, the chuck combines compact dimensions with a sturdy mass of approximately 1.9 kg, giving a stable toolholder that resists vibration during cutting. The mechanical simplicity of the self‑tightening design keeps upkeep straightforward: routine inspection of jaw condition and lubrication of moving parts is typically sufficient to maintain performance. This low‑complexity approach supports dependable service life and predictable maintenance cycles.

Clear specifications and typical applications

With a clamping capacity of 57 mm, the chuck is suited to a broad range of conventional drill bits and smaller toolholding tasks on machines that accept an MT3 arbor. Typical uses include workshop drilling, production runs on small pillar drills and light‑duty machining on machines with compatible tapers. The compact footprint and secure jaw action make it a practical choice where stability, repeatability and simple operation are required.

FAQ

What is the maximum clamping diameter of the chuck?
The chuck provides a 57 mm maximum clamping diameter, suitable for a wide range of conventional drill bits and toolholding needs.

Which spindle taper is required for mounting?
Mounting requires an MT3 taper; the INT-16-MT3 connects directly to MT3 spindles for fast, secure fitting.

How does the self‑tightening mechanism improve performance?
The self‑tightening action increases jaw pressure under axial load, improving clamping stability and reducing bit slippage during heavy or prolonged drilling.

Is the chuck suitable for frequent tool changes?
Yes; the direct MT3 fit and straightforward jaw operation make the chuck practical for workflows with regular tool changes, aiding quick setup and repeatability.

What is the weight and how does that affect handling?
The chuck weighs approximately 1.9 kg, providing a stable mass that helps dampen vibration while remaining manageable for standard workshop handling.
