Knurling Toolholders

Knurling toolholders are lathe-mounted holders designed to produce a knurled pattern on cylindrical workpieces. They are used to improve grip and handling on shafts, knobs, fasteners, handles, and functional surfaces where an anti-slip texture is required, while maintaining controlled pressure and proper alignment during the forming operation.

In this collection you’ll find toolholders suited to different setups and shop requirements, focusing on rigidity, accurate wheel support, and smooth adjustment for consistent results. Options are selected to help reduce chatter, improve repeatability, and achieve clean knurl formation across common materials such as steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, with reliable choices from Zeus and Soba.

These toolholders are widely used by machinists, maintenance teams, and production/QC environments working with manual or CNC lathes, where dependable knurling is needed for prototypes, repairs, or repeat manufacturing in general engineering and component fabrication.
