About
Abbott Workholding Products is a leading American manufacturer of precision workholding solutions for turning and milling machines, established in 1954. The company is renowned for inventing the nation's first Pie Jaw® brand chuck jaw in 1955, a revolutionary circular segmented jaw design that eliminated problems inherent in traditional rectangular jaws. This innovation has enabled manufacturers across numerous industries to increase productivity, maintain tighter tolerances, and improve production quality while reducing costs. Operating from a 37,000 square foot facility in Manhattan, Kansas, Abbott manufactures more than 4,000 different aluminum, steel, and cast iron chuck jaws, including both straight and Pie Jaw® configurations. Their comprehensive product line extends beyond chuck jaws to include master plates, segments, tooling columns (CNC tombstones), tooling blocks, angle plates, and parallels. The company's aluminum tooling columns offer significant weight advantages that enhance machine utilization and shop efficiency. With over $4 million in inventory, Abbott provides fast, reliable overnight delivery to customers across North America and internationally. Their skilled technicians can accommodate special orders requiring precise customer specifications. Abbott's products are particularly valued for their ability to maintain concentricities and close tolerances consistently, provide positive material gripping without distortion, extend machine and tool life through effective coolant application, and enhance overall operational efficiency through their lightweight design.
