CTH01 Cutting Tip Holder
The Cutting Tip Holder, at a little under two inches long, allows easy use of a cutting tip without having to manipulate the Tooke® Paint Inspection Gage to make the incision and then manipulate the gauge again to view the incision through the microscope. Make multiple incisions with your most-used tip without having to return the gauge to viewing position multiple times. A tip storage compartment holds two additional tips.
(Please note: Cutting tips holder do not come with tips.)
- 1.6" (4.1cm) long overall
- 0.47" (1.2cm) tall exclusive of feet and tip(s)
- 0.98"(2.5cm) deep
The cutting tip is held securely by set screws from the side and end of the cutting tip holder to provide 90-degrees of support. The tip storage compartment set screw is shown below raised to allow access to the stored tips
Tip storage compartment
The tipholder has a tip storage compartment that can hold two tips. The wrench provided with the Tooke Gage is used to open and close the set screw that holds the tips in the compartment.
The CTH01 comes in a handy carry box, which slips easily into a pocket.
CTH02 (two-tip) Cutting Tip Holder
The CTH02 (two-tip) Cutting Tip Holder allows easy use of carbide cutting tips without having to manipulate the Tooke® Paint Inspection Gage to make the incision and then manipulate the gauge again to view the incision through the microscope
If your coatings tend to be right on the cusp between using one tip or another, this two-tip holder lets you keep your two most-used tips at the ready. You can “bracket” your incision angles by mounting two different tips to create different incising geometries.
(Please note: Cutting tips holders do not come with tips.)
- 1.6" (4.1cm) long overall
- 0.47" (1.2cm) tall exclusive of feet and tip(s)
- 0.98" (2.5cm) deep
each other to securely hold the cutting tip in place.
Older version shown: CTH02 is now anodized for a better finish.
Note that the mounted tip is inserted so that the relief cut (the rounded cut on the tip edge)
is drawn toward the user. That is, the edge with the relief cut leads the cut. This allows
material cut away by the tip to curl up and away from the incision, allowing for a cleaner cut.
The new CTH02 has a tip storage compartment that holds two cutting tips.
