Spindle Brake Kit for Haas TL-1 Lathe MY2016 and newer
Static spindle brake for Haas TL-1 series lathes MY2016 and newer.
This spindle brake allows an operator to firmly hold the spindle still for faster change-over of the chuck. This brake fits cleanly inside the TL series motor housing and does not interfere with the re-installation of the factory motor housing cover, or the operation of the spindle drip-catch box. Both of these install over the top of the flush-fitting spindle brake assembly. The brake assembly is 1/8" thick and, as such, the cover and drip-catch box sit 1/8" beyond their original location.
Included in the kit:
- Caliper support frame & Disk Brake Caliper
- Support frame hardware for flush mount of support frame
- Alloy Steel Spindle Brake Rotor & Rotor Mounting Hardware
- Caliper handle, Caliper Stanchion, Cable and Hardware
- All hardware required for installation included and is stainless steel
