Carmex's quick-change polygon threading toolholders enable customers whose machines are equipped with the Sandvik Capto system to utilize Carmex's threading inserts. Incorporating a polygon taper to ensure automatic radial centering and even pressure around the coupling, the toolholders are ISO standard (26623) compliant for toolholding systems. The 1.4-degree tapered polygon shank speeds tool changing, and the toolholders are available in configurations for external and internal threading operations.

Jeff Dei, president of Carmex USA, comments, "Customers that have equipped their machines with the Capto system now have the opportunity to incorporate Carmex's superior turning technology with the toolholder that is both easy to change and compatible with Capto and other systems. The centering capability and precise fit make this system the ideal choice for precision turning operations in tough materials."
