The Ball Lock¬Æ Shank part number 49642 is designed for use in quick-change mounting applications, featuring a shank diameter of 1.00 inches. It is constructed from 4340 steel with a black oxide finish, providing durability and resistance to wear. The shank is heat-treated to a hardness of 40-45 RC, ensuring strength and longevity under operational conditions. This product operates effectively within a temperature range of -20¬8F to 400¬8F (-30¬8C to 200¬8C), making it suitable for various machining environments. The Ball Lock¬Æ system is known for its ability to combine locating and locking in a single motion, offering repeatability of +/- 0.0005 inches or better, which is critical for precision machining tasks. This shank is compatible with specific fixture plates and requires additional components such as receiver bushings and liners for optimal performance.
Any Ball Lock® application requires at least (2) sets of shanks, receiver bushings, and liners. The liners are placed into the fixture plate to insure extremely accurate positioning. If more than (2) shanks are required (to provide additional hold down force), omit the liner bushing so that these additional holes will not interfere with your primary locating holes.
