Abstract

The present invention relates to an improved toolholder for releasably mounting on a tool support member. The toolholder is provided with a forward end for receiving a tool and a shank extending from the forward end for being releasably received in a bore of a tool support member. The shank has a first section for interference fitting with the bore of the tool support member when a rearwardly facing face on the toolholder is in abutment with a forwardly facing surface on the tool support member. The shank has a second section, rearwardly of its first section, for expansible abutment with the bore of the tool support member.
