4. Sole Source Vendor and Justification:

This document is to request Sole Source justification for a contract for the procurement of one Hydraulic Holder and Sleeve Kit for HSK 100A Spindle from ETP Transmission. ETP design of Hydraulic Holders is different than other manufacturers. Their design has an Electron Beam Welded construction as opposed to brazed and the pressure chamber is actuated with grease rather than oil. This allows for a greater gripping force on the entire diameter and length of the cutting tools. ETP holders have the ability to grip h6 or h7 shanks

Technical Certification: I certify this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
