floating aggregate head

Floating Aggregate Features

• Accurately follows material surface

• Compensates up to 10mm

• Pressure adjusts from 1/4 to 20 lbs.

The Soft-Touch aggregate head accurately follows the contours of your stock so cutting depth remains constant.

There is a compressed air connection on the aggregate to provide dust evacuation, and the convenient tool presetting feature allows you to perform fast adjustments.

Aggregate comes with the standard floating bell, an ER 25 or ER 32 spindle output (your choice) and a wrench.

Options include the Chip Guide, a variety of floating bells, shoes, and sleighs that are all interchangeable, and various spindle outputs. See below for details.
