Vintage Ralmike’s Gamet France Automatic Facing Boring Head R8 In Wooden Box
























Title: Vintage Ralmike’s Tool-A-Rama Automatic Boring & Facing Head Kit. Spindle Taper Style: Standard Integrated R8 Taper (Bridgeport Direct Fit). Up for sale is a rare, premium vintage manual machining Automatic Boring and Facing Head kit distributed by the iconic Ralmike’s Tool-A-Rama (Summit, New Jersey). Unlike common static boring heads that require you to stop the mill spindle to make diameter changes, this high-end French-made Gamet head features a fully functional mechanical clicker ring for automatic radial self-feed facing operations! Perfect for machining flat-bottomed counterbores, facing blind flanges, or cutting internal snap-ring grooves perfectly square under power feed. Kit Features & Specifications. Boring Head: Genuine Gamet (France) head dual-marked with the CTR stamp and Ralmike’s branding. Automatic Self-Feed Mechanism: Integrated knurled outer collar allows mechanical cross-feed progression while the spindle is rotating. Taper Shank: Heavy-duty, integrated solid R8 taper shank-mounts directly into standard Bridgeport knee vertical milling machine spindles. Boring Extensions: Includes an indexable tool bit holder, and an “S” stamped heavy rigidity steel boring bar. Ralmike’s Summit, NJ boring bars as pictured. Storage: Housed in its original finger-jointed wooden storage box. Pre-owned vintage toolroom equipment. The critical dovetail ways and slide paths are in great condition and move smoothly. The micro-adjustable radial metric dial screw (0-5 divisions) turns correctly, and the automatic feed ring turns crisp and free. No heavy corrosion, abuse, or tool crashes-just light cosmetic patina from a clean, historical machine shop environment. (Please review photos for exact inventory and condition details). Securely packaged and heavily padded to ensure the precision ground R8 taper, metric dial carriage, and wood casing are fully protected during transit. Being offered as-is/Found, please ask questions beforehand. All sales are final!
