While shaving it is advisable to support work that is long in relation to its diameter. This prevents the part from springing under the cut. Screw Machine shaving supports are manufactured for this purpose.

Slater Tools' Support Shaving End-Slide maintains support on your screw machine as shaving decreases the workpiece diameter. This tool helps maintain close tolerances and required fine finishes. This item compliments the proven pin type Shaving Dovetail Tool Holder.
