Dillon Workpiece Stops Reduce Setup Time
The workpiece stops enable short parts to be set above the jaws, providing clearance.
Dillon Manufacturing’s workpiece stops are designed to provide a quick, consistent method of locating short workpieces in three-jaw chucks. They enable short parts to be set above the jaws, providing clearance.
Strong magnets that are pressed into the stops hold them securely to the chuck face, which contrasts with parallels or spacers that can come loose and be thrown. In addition to providing a safer workspace, Dillon’s workpiece stops enable quick setup times. They are available in heights from 0.563"-1.375", making them ideal for machining short parts with three-jaw chucks. Dillon Manufacturing stocks the full lineup of workpiece stops, as well as other accessories including jaw boring rings, jaw force gages, grease, vise jaws, jaw nuts, keyways and more in its Springfield, Ohio factory.
