Maxi Torque-Rite - Power Drawbar Head - TR-279
Couldn't load pickup availability
The Maxi Torque-Rite TR-279 is the power head; the air gun assembly that does the actual work of clamping and releasing the tool. It's the single head Maxi Torque-Rite builds for their entire pneumatic power drawbar platform, used across every TR-100 system configuration and OEM cross-referenced to Southwestern Industries part 22581-1 on Trak DPM / ProtoTRAK machines. Change a tool in seconds, not minutes: increase productivity on your manual milling machine, decrease cycle time on your CNC milling machine. Delivers 40-50 ft-lb of torque to the tool holder, not the 15-25 ft-lb you get from competing drawbars.
