Tile tool nut

Abstract

A tool nut includes a frustoconical nut body that defines a central longitudinal axis of rotation, the frustoconical nut body comprising a top surface that defines a first diameter and a bottom surface that defines a second diameter, the second diameter greater than the first diameter, the bottom surface comprises a contiguous flat surface transverse to the central longitudinal axis of rotation; a threaded passage through the frustoconical nut body along the central longitudinal axis of rotation, the threaded passage operable to thread onto a spindle of a cutting tool; a counterbore in the bottom surface along the central longitudinal axis of rotation; a first mounting feature through the frustoconical nut body along a first axis parallel to the central longitudinal axis of rotation; and a second mounting feature through the frustoconical nut body along a second axis parallel to the central longitudinal axis of rotation, the central longitudinal axis of rotation, the first axis, and the second axis, along a common line.
