VBH-112 Face and Boring Head Set — BT-50 compatibility, M24x3.0P fine adjustment (Vertex)

A versatile VBH-112 face and boring head set for precision finishing and medium-duty boring on milling machines and machining centres, designed to improve surface quality and hole accuracy across diverse workshop tasks.

• Precision facing and boring performance
• BT-50 collet shank compatibility
• Fine M24x3.0P adjustment thread
• Solid 9.4 kg mass for vibration damping

Stable results through mass and geometry

The head set is engineered to provide consistent surface quality by leveraging a substantial mass that suppresses chatter and enhances tool engagement. With a 9.4 kg construction and purpose‑designed geometry, the assembly increases cutting stability and reduces the risk of harmonic vibration during finishing passes. This stability translates into fewer rework cycles and more reliable tolerances when machining both shoulders and bores.

Fine positioning for accurate diameters

A precise adjustment mechanism with an M24x3.0P fine thread enables controlled radial setting of the cutting insert, allowing small corrections without removing the tool from the spindle. The fine-pitch thread supports repeatable positioning and simpler set-up routines, which reduces machine downtime and improves first-pass yield. The mechanism is particularly valuable where tight bore tolerances and concentricity are required.

Compatibility with common toolholding standards

Designed for workshops that use taper-mounted tooling, the set accepts BT-50 type collets and holders, ensuring straightforward integration into existing tool inventories. Compatibility with this widely used shank system minimises the need for additional adaptors and keeps spindle runout within expected tolerances. The use of standardised toolholding contributes to predictable machining behaviour and easier stock management.

Application focus and material considerations

The head set is optimised for facing operations and medium-load boring tasks on a range of materials typically encountered in general machining. Its configuration supports accurate finishing of mating faces and precision boring for assemblies where surface condition and dimensional accuracy are critical. Where higher cutting forces are expected, the head’s mass and clamping interface help maintain concentricity and tool life.

Practical operation and maintenance

The unit’s mechanical adjustment and robust construction are intended for straightforward workshop handling and routine maintenance. Lubrication points and accessible fastenings mean that the head can be inspected and serviced with normal shop tools, helping to preserve rigidity and cutting performance over time. Regular checks of the clamping interface and adjustment thread ensure continued accuracy and minimise unexpected production interruptions.

Why this head set suits production environments

By combining a stable mass, fine radial adjustment and industry-standard toolholding, the assembly supports repeatable, high-quality finishing and boring operations. The result is improved process reliability and reduced scrap rates, especially on multi-shift production lines where tool change consistency and predictable behaviour are priorities. The set is a practical choice when precision and operational continuity are required.
