It is. Hydraulic is an excellent choice as well, but in my experience there isn't much, if any, benefit over shrink for most applications. And the price is MUCH higher for hydraulic.
@@venomdefense316 Totally understand that. The marketing videos show ER and shrink fit held tools squealing and chattering while the more holding power hydraulic ones magically don't chatter. I wonder if the advantage is real and how much horsepower you need to take advantage of it?
@@multiHappyHacker I have a few Schunk Tendo hydraulics. They are excellent - huge improvement over ER and sidelock. But from what I can tell, shrink and hydraulic are fairly equivalent in terms of performance. Shrink is nice from the standpoint that it's slimmer. Hydraulic has the benefit of being much easier and faster to change tools. Just like anything else, they're all tools in the toolbox. Never hurts to have options.
So much awesomeness!
You still own this machine I have the same machine have some questions.
Is that a heat shrink tool holder? I heard they excel when you need long reach, but hydraulic is the bees knees for roughing otherwise.

Bruh, I almost disliked it cause it was only 1:00 long!
😂😂😂 I'll get the gopro charged up and get some better ones later.
Only takes a minute.
