The main shaft, nut, and EzyLock are all made of stainless steel. The EzyLock ensures that the stone is securely fastened, without the risk of loosening. Thanks to a unique design, no tools are required for mounting or dismounting the grinding stone.
With the Tormek EzyLock, which functions both as a nut and washer, you can easily mount the grinding stone using only your hands. The large pitch of the left-handed nut causes the stone's rotational force to tighten the nut.
When mounting the grinding stone, turn the EzyLock nut counterclockwise by hand. When you start grinding, the nut will automatically tighten to the correct torque.
If you need to change the stone, turn the stone clockwise while holding the leather honing disc with your other hand. The EzyLock nut will then automatically loosen.
The design makes it easy to work with different grinding stones, allowing you to easily switch from the Tormek Original Stone to the specialty stones Blackstone Silicon and Japanese Waterstone.
The main shaft fits Tormek T-8, Tormek T-7, Tormek 2000, and older models with a 250 mm stone.
