VBH-104 Facing and Boring Head Set — MT‑5 collet, M20x3.0 thread (Vertex)

The VBH-104 facing and boring head set is a workshop-grade tool head assembly for accurate facing and internal boring operations on lathes and machining centres, optimised for stable finishes and repeatable set-ups.

• Accurate finishing for facing and boring
• Morse taper MT-5 collet compatibility
• M20x3.0 thread for standard spindle mounting
• Solid construction, approx. 7 kg mass

Consistent finishes through engineered rigidity and balance

The head assembly is built to provide consistent surface quality during facing and internal turning cycles. Its mass (approx. 7 kg) and robust construction reduce vibration and support a stable cutting process, which in turn improves tool life and repeatability. The combination of a standard M20x3.0 spindle thread and a Morse taper MT-5 interface simplifies mounting on a wide range of machines and shortens retooling times. For workshops that prioritise process reliability, the design translates into fewer rejects and less rework.

Fast set-up and broad machine compatibility

Mounting and changeover are simplified by the standard interface choices. The MT-5 taper accepts widely used adapters and holders, enabling quick integration into existing tooling concepts, while the M20x3.0 thread meets common spindle adaptor dimensions. The assembly permits controlled radial and axial positioning for accurate bore alignment and facing runs. Technical users will appreciate that these interfaces are industry-standard components; less experienced staff can thereby perform repeatable installations with minimal specialist tooling.

Precision engineering that supports production targets

Manufactured under the Vertex brand, the head set prioritises dimensional stability and service life. Key components are machined to maintain concentricity and minimise runout, delivering precision where surface integrity and bore tolerance matter. The set is intended for routine facing and boring rather than exotic alloys not specified in the data; selection of cutting parameters and inserts remains a process decision. The overall design focuses on delivering measurable process improvements—shorter set-up, stable cutting conditions and consistent finish quality—that integrate into a leaner production flow.

FAQ

Which spindles accept this head set?
The VBH-104 facing and boring head set mounts to spindles with an M20x3.0 thread and is compatible with toolholders that accept an MT-5 taper, matching common lathe and turning centre interfaces.

What does MT-5 mean for mounting?
MT-5 indicates a Morse taper 5 seating; the VBH-104 uses this taper for secure axial and radial location, allowing conventional collet or sleeve adapters to be employed for installation.

Is this suitable for both facing and boring tasks?
Yes, the assembly is engineered specifically for facing and boring operations, offering the rigidity and mounting standardisation required for repeatable finishing work.

Why is the mass of the head set relevant?
The head set’s mass (about 7 kg) contributes to damping of cutting vibrations and improves stability during machining, which helps to achieve better surface finish and consistent bore accuracy.

Who manufactures this head set?
The head set is produced by Vertex and supplied under the VBH series; Vertex is noted for manufacturing engineered machining accessories suitable for industrial applications.
