HARDINGE ® STYLE "B" MASTER FEED FINGER PADS
Style "B" Master Feed Fingers and Pads
Hardinge Style "B" feed fingers and pads are the most practical feed fingers for high
production bar machining. Designed and manufactured to be the most reliable on the
market today, they offer many advantages over other styles. Among these are:
Dependability. There are no screws or pins to hold pads in place. Pads cannot come
loose and they offer full bearing on the bar stock.
Versatility. Pads are stocked in round, hexagon, and square shapes, in a variety of
materials and sizes.
Affordability. The versatility of a master feed finger can be increased by the purchase
of inexpensive pads in a variety of sizes and shapes.
Pad Material
Hardened Steel Pads are for hot-rolled and cold-drawn stock.This style pad is noted
for long wear. This pad will give reasonable freedom from scoring minimized by the
greater pad hardness. With our Style "B" Master Feed Finger acting as a durable
holder, you can select correct pads to meet your exacting requirements.
Nickel Cast Iron Pads: For use on brass, aluminum, polished or plated bars, and
special-finish drawn bars to eliminate scoring of stock. Many tests were made for the
selection of this material to remove objectionable scoring of stock and to ensure long
wear.
Bronze Pads: Used for ground drill rod, ground bars, and also with the materials listed
for nickel cast iron pads, except brass, to eliminate scoring of stock.
