Spindle Brake Kit for Haas TL Series Lathes MY2016 and newer
Static spindle brake for Haas TL series lathes MY2016 and newer for use with A2-5 (2.3") or A2-6 (3.5") spindle.
This spindle brake allows an operator to firmly hold the spindle for live-tool machining, keyway broaching, advanced automation, and fast chuck change-overs. 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 spindle drip-catch box. The caliper support frame is 1/8" thick and, as such, the motor housing cover and drip-catch box sit 1/8" beyond their original location.
This brake may be actuated by both (or either) M-Code (relay closure) or panel mounted push-button (included). In either case, the red LED lights to warn the operator when the brake is engaged.
Typical Spindle Holding Torque vs. Pressure Setting:
- @100 psi: 106 ft. lbs. (0.69 MPa: 122 Nm)
- @80 psi: 69 ft. lbs. (0.55 MPa: 93.7 Nm)
