easyZERO Runout Compensation Nuts Quickly Correct Runout Errors and Misalignment

The Diatool easyZERO runout compensation nut from Monaghan Tooling quickly and easily corrects runout errors and misalignment for all round tools using ER collets – ER16 to ER40.

Simply replace existing ER collet chuck nut with easyZERO runout compensation nut. The easyZERO nut features six adjustment screws that allow for up to .0011” runout to be dialed out in seconds. This unique technology holds tighter tolerances and produces better surface finishes. Tool life is increased since all cutting edges equally share the chip load – concentric cutting means consistent tool wear.

With the ability to rapidly dial in runout with complete control, users spend less time tapping on the side of the tool and resetting tools and collets. Overall efficiency is increased, machining costs are lowered, and scrap is reduced with easyZERO.

Monaghan Tooling Group provides five sizes of Diatool’s easyZERO compensation nuts to fit ER16 to ER40 collets. The easyZERO nut is available along with a Hex Key, spanner, and ER collet in four different kits.

  • chuck

    chuck

    Workholding device that affixes to a mill, lathe or drill-press spindle. It holds a tool or workpiece by one end, allowing it to be rotated. May also be fitted to the machine table to hold a workpiece. Two or more adjustable jaws actually hold the tool or part. May be actuated manually, pneumatically, hydraulically or electrically. See collet.

  • collet

    collet

    Flexible-sided device that secures a tool or workpiece. Similar in function to a chuck, but can accommodate only a narrow size range. Typically provides greater gripping force and precision than a chuck. See chuck.

  • tapping

    tapping

    Machining operation in which a tap, with teeth on its periphery, cuts internal threads in a predrilled hole having a smaller diameter than the tap diameter. Threads are formed by a combined rotary and axial-relative motion between tap and workpiece. See tap.
