The Spindle Brake provides a convenient method of locking the spindle freeing both hands to complete a tool change. A safety switch ensures that power to the motor is disabled when the Spindle Brake is engaged. This Spindle Brake features an integral flip-style locking fork which locks the mill’s spindle when engaged and does not require a separate locking device to be mounted and removed from the mill.

To operate, flip the Spindle Brake fork down over the spindle while the spindle is at rest. Then rotate the spindle by hand until the set screws in the Spindle Brake fork mesh with a spindle spline. Once the tool change is complete, lift the Spindle Brake fork up into the retracted position and you are ready to go.

Scarlett D. ★★★★★

The safety switch that cuts power during brake engagement gives me real peace of mind while changing tools, and the flip-style design makes locking the spindle quick and effortless. Works exactly as described on my X3 mill.

Jacob ★★★★★

I was tired of wrestling with tool changes on my mill, but this flip-style spindle lock makes it a one-handed breeze. The safety switch that cuts power when engaged is a nice touch for peace of mind. Really speeds up my workflow.

Claire ★★★★★

Installing this was straightforward, and the safety switch that cuts power during use is a nice touch I wasn't expecting. Makes tool changes on my X3 mill much faster with both hands free.
