Electrical Interlocking Mounting Bracket (EIMB) - Heavy Duty Metal Support Bracket for Electrical Panels & Industrial Equipment - Secure Installation for Switchboards, Control Panels & Machinery

This device replaces the existing mounting bracket when an automatic shutoff is needed for lathe operations. Electrical Interlocking Mounting Brackets (E.I.M.B.) can beused with any Flexbar Latheguards or Small Chuckguards. Available in 4 different mounting styles, the E.I.M.B. units will ensure safe operations by requiring that the guard is down before the machine can be turned on.

Available in 4 Different Mounting Styles: Bright yellow painted finish.

Styles

Style 1, Model No. 17001- mount at back of lathe. For all shield sizes.
Style 2, Model No. 17002 - telescoping & swiveling style. For lathes with irregular or dome-shaped headstock, E.G. -Hardinge. For all shield sizes.
Style 3, Model No. 17003 - Mounts on face of headstock. Backplate can be reversed 180° on housing thus flange position can be on right or on left side, if reversed. All shield sizes.
