Stylus for Audax R56 cutting head

Post: # 20541Unread post **exapnomapcase** Mon Jul 23, 2012 7:26 pm

Hello everyone…
I recently purchased a Rek-O-Kut Imperial with an Audax R56 cutting head on it. Can anyone tell me what kind of cutting stylus would work with this cutter? I have no specifications for the Audax cutting head and am a novice with cutting, so I haven't yet developed much common sense for these things. (I did contact Apollo with this question but they were unable to help me out…) I appreciate any information or guidance that can be provided! Thanks!

Those use either long or short shanks... I believe that the Rek-O-Kuts used long shanks. You can buy a 462 from Apollo and if for some reason it is too long, just trim a little off the shank with wire cutters...

The audax head uses a long shank.
