00 RT with Chip Deflector = 000 RT with Chip Deflector

 (Note) When using a Conversion Kit use a new ajusting screw and make sure the bolt is lose when ajusting the size.

These holders are made so you can use the insert you need for the matiral you are running and at a price you can afford, these inserts can be purchased from any major company and are standard inserts.

When using the OOORT or OORT Box Tool Holder with a Conversion Kit, you will have to mill or grind .050 off of this corner to get the screw out, so you can turn or change the Insert with out removing the Conversion Kit when it is in the machine. Just turn or change the Insert.

 D.T. Tool Holders 

Conversion Kits all use the same size Insert.

If you have to buy extended roller's for your holder. the conversion kit is the answer and you don't have to grind tool bits.

The only adjustment is the size.
