VBC-C20 taper (C-type) — C20 mounting, Vertex

A VBC-C20 taper for secure tool mounting and precise spindle interface alignment in workshop and industrial applications.

• C20 mounting for standard spindle interfaces
• Lightweight 0.4 kg construction
• Manufactured by Vertex
• Reliable taper connection for accurate alignment

Reliable alignment for consistent machining results

The C-type taper design delivers a predictable contact geometry that supports precision alignment between spindle and toolholder. The defined C20 mounting ensures a repeatable interface, reducing runout and promoting steady tool engagement. For machines where concentricity and positional accuracy matter, this taper provides a simple mechanical solution that improves part quality and reduces rework. The combination of a standardised mounting and stable contact geometry minimises setup variability and supports process reproducibility.

Reduced rotational inertia for faster spindle response

At 0.4 kg, the taper contributes minimal mass to the rotating assembly, which translates into reduced inertia and quicker spindle acceleration and deceleration. This characteristic benefits applications with frequent tool changes or variable-speed cycles, where dynamic response affects cycle time and surface finish. Lower rotating mass can also reduce wear on bearings over time, supporting longer service intervals for the machine without altering machining parameters or compromising stability.

Clear identification and practical integration in inventory

Marked with SKU VBC-C20 and recorded under ECLASS 21029010, the component is ready for straightforward stock control and procurement. The GTIN 4061905096372 supports barcode-based tracking and simplifies logistics. Supplied by Vertex, the taper integrates with equipment that accepts a C20 interface and is suitable where a standardised, compact taper connection is required. Metav Werkzeuges’ European distribution ensures local availability and a quality filter for incoming parts.
