Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Eli ★★★★★

I was a little skeptical about the included wrenches, but they actually fit perfectly and make swapping inserts quick. The first facing cut I took on some 1018 steel came out glass-smooth with no chatter.

Avery ★★★★★

The holder feels rock solid on my tool post, and the insert seated cleanly without any fiddling. I’ve run a few facing passes on steel and the finish came out surprisingly smooth for a bench top setup.

Miles L. ★★★★★

The included wrenches fit perfectly, so swapping the insert took under a minute on my bench mill. The right-hand design gives a clean, chatter-free finish on mild steel, and it’s held up through a dozen facing passes without any sign of wear.
