Shops that have a collection of worn, broken or seldom used (outdated pocket) carbide bars ranging in size from 0.500" to 1.250" will be pleased to know these expensive tools can return to service for a fraction of new shank cost. (CLICK HERE FOR LENGTH RECOMMENDATIONS). Once retrofitted with the Versabar® coupling, the shanks become modular, adapting the full array of Versabar® modular heads. Over time, the only maintenance may involve the occasional replacement of the Versabar® coupling. The shank itself has virtually unlimited life. Should it break, it can become a stub length bar.

The Versabar® Retrofit Promotion provides three major benefits for end users:

  • Savings of up to 65% compared to purchasing new bars
  • Value is restored to existing bars, maximizing investment
  • Versabar® new shank purchases are reduced (even eliminated)

Convenience, versatility, improved machine utilization, and the exclusive Versabar® Retrofit Promotion make Versabar® an outstanding value for today's progressive machine shop.
