Our take on the Vertex R8 Right Angle Attachment Kit

This is a right-angle milling attachment that mounts on an R8 spindle and lets a vertical mill cut horizontally. It replaces the need for a separate horizontal mill or elaborate fixturing for side work. The head is rated to 2,000 RPM, so it is for slower, heavier cuts, not high-speed work. It suits hobbyists and small shops with an R8 mill who occasionally need horizontal milling.

Pros
  • Fits any mill with an R8 spindle
  • Turns vertical milling into horizontal work without special fixtures
  • Includes the R8 stub arbor and drawbar extension socket
  • Simple bolt-on setup for occasional jobs
Cons
  • 2,000 RPM limit rules out small-diameter, high-speed cutters
  • Adds overhang and reduces rigidity compared with a true horizontal mill
  • Bulkier head can limit clearance on smaller mills
  • No coolant or lubrication provisions of its own

Questions and answers

Will it fit my mill?
It fits any mill with an R8 spindle, including Bridgeport-style mills and their clones. The head is 3-3/8 inches in overall diameter, so check clearance around the spindle.
What is the maximum speed?
2,000 RPM. Keep spindle speed at or below that, which means larger cutters and slower feeds rather than small high-speed bits.
What comes in the kit?
The right-angle head, an R8 stub arbor and a drawbar extension socket. You supply the cutters and any arbor for them.
Can it replace a horizontal milling machine?
For occasional slots, keyways and side cuts, yes. For continuous production or heavy cuts, a true horizontal mill is stiffer and faster.
Does it work on a drill press?
No. It needs an R8 milling spindle with a drawbar, and a drill press lacks the rigidity and the R8 taper.
Where is it made?
Taiwan.
Where is the Vertex R8 Right Angle Attachment Kit cheapest?
At JB Tools, for $886.29, as of our latest check.
