Without a dimensionally correct tool holder taper, it is not possible to ensure a proper spindle/tool holder connection.
Using tool holder dimensional gauges, the taper and other key features can be checked for wear, or new holders can be checked as a part of incoming inspection. In addition, gauges are a necessity when manufacturing tool holders. Units are available for CAT/DIN/BT tapers in basic contact gauges, dial indicator gauges, as well as air gauges. For HSK, we offer dial indicator, electronic, and air gauges.

Designed to detect tool holder taper wear in seconds.
Maintain machining accuracy and extend spindle life with our high-precision Taper Inspection Gauge. Designed for the machine shop floor, this system allows operators to identify critical taper wear and deformation before it leads to scrapped parts or costly spindle damage.
Rapid Diagnostics: Verify tool holder integrity in seconds with a simple, repeatable process.
High Resolution: Compatible with 8mm stem indicators. Indicators not included: resolutions of 0.001mm, 0.0005mm, or 0.00005″ available from TAC Rockford.
Portable: Includes two heavy-duty Fixture Bases and a custom-fitted carrying case to keep your precision instruments protected in industrial environments.
Flexible Calibration: While the 410.148 Certified Taper Master is recommended, the system is designed to work with a “known good” tool holder for quick shop-floor referencing.
