Kennametal Slim Line chucks offer speeds as high as 30,000-rpm while allowing the use of standard-length tooling. Featuring a slim and rigid design, the chucks are useful for hard-to-reach drilling, boring and reaming applications in the automotive, die/mold and aerospace industries, the company says.

Other applications include general machining where existing drill L × D ratios do not meet clearance requirements. The pre-balanced chucks accept tool diameters ranging from 1/4" to 3/4" (6 mm to 20 mm). When used with standard reducer sleeves, they can handle tools as small as 1/8" (3 mm) in diameter.
