Abstract

An adapter for converting a standard square headed bolt to a T-Bolt for use with machine tools for holding workpieces to the bed thereof. The adapter includes a fabrication having a capturing area formed by downwardly extending legs of the unit for receiving and retaining the head of a square headed bolt and having transversely directed elements above such capturing area to be received into the guide slot of the machine tool bed. The combination of the capturing area and the transverse elements, with an aperture to pass the shaft of the bolt from the capturing area, provides a means for retaining a square headed bolt within the T-Slot of a machine tool bed such that the same may be used as a tool or workpiece hold down device.
