Mechanical Core Chucks

The Tilt-Lock principle is the most advanced design today, providing a truly dependable method in chucking. Thousands of companies in a wide variety of industries are realizing major savings in production by converting to Tilt-Lock. Tilt-Lock teeth automatically engage to the core by the relative motion of the roll to the shaft or shaft to the roll. Tooth lock-up is instant, no tools are used. Tilt-Lock offers engineering designs that combine maximum strength with the lightest weights for handling. High maintenance costs are virtually eliminated! Tilt-Lock offers you the widest range of chucks to choose from. Chucks to accommodate core I.D.’s from 1” through 12” incorporating a variety of desirable features for specific operations are available as standards. Save time in roll changes, assure precision concentricity, obtain positive, instant lock-up and release without tools for your operations. Insist on Tilt-Lock!

Tilt-Lock Flange Style Chucks

The Tilt-Lock Flange Chuck assures web control both laterally and radially. The teeth lock the core internally with precision concentricity, instantly and automatically. The greater the torque, the deeper the bite. Web location, laterally, is held true with the chuck flange, by locking the chuck at the desired spot on the shaft with the set screw provided.

Tilt-Lock Shoulder Less Style Chucks

Shoulder less Chucks are spaced at intervals along the working surface of the shaft. They are commonly used to replace expanding shafts, or when heavier torque loads assure deep tooth penetration into the core, eliminating chance of roll side drift. A Flange Chuck is used on the “closed” side of the shaft, while the Shoulder less Chuck is located approximately 3” in from the end of the roll on the opposite end of the shaft. No tools are used. You will save four to six minutes every roll change.

Tilt-Lock Dualock Chucks

The Tilt-Dualock Chuck features a depress-able spring flange shoulder that enables the operator to load and reload rolls on a shaft without ever touching a tool. The operator 5F4 r merely depresses the spring flange and inserts or withdraws the shaft containing the chucks. A Tilt-Lock Flange Chuck or Idler is located on one side of the shaft, while the Tilt-Dualock Chuck is secured to the opposing end of the shaft, spaced the width of the roll apart. Absolute roll control is assured both laterally and radially. A simple reverse twist of the shaft or roll disengages the chuck when removing. For uniform roll width operations, the Tilt-Dualock Chuck offers you the finest, surest, quickest method in chucking.

Tilt-Lock Idler Style Chucks

  Tilt-Lock Idler Chucks are designed as companion chucks to Flange, Shoulder less, or Dualock Chucks. Dimensionally, they are similar to the Flange model, but do not have teeth or retaining bands. The Idler Chuck is recommended in operations where torque requirements are satisfied with the use of only one regular Tilt-Lock Chuck on the shaft. The Idler Chuck serves to hold lateral roll drift and assists in assuring concentricity on the running roll.
SERIES R13 (3” Thru 4” Core I.D.) Thru Round Shaft Mounting

Tilt-Lock Rim Clamp Style Chucks

  Rim Clamp Chucks function identically to the Flange Chuck, but fasten to the shaft by use of a split flange, rather than with a set screw.

Tilt-Lock Step Chucks

 

Tilt-Lock Step Chucks are available for many combinations of cored rolls. Perhaps the 6/3”, 5/3”, or 4/3” are the most commonly used for shaft operations. The main advantage in purchasing Tilt-Lock Step Chucks is that fewer separate chucks are required for appliations where core I.D.’s vary from roll to roll. To compute torque factors and dimensions of a given Step Chuck design, simply use the largest size as the flange model, and add the shoulderless “step” for each of the smaller succeeding diameter required. Available in either 2-Way or regular standard models.
