About SUBURBAN

Suburban is a brand historically associated with workholding and machine tool accessories, particularly magnetic chucks and related setup equipment. The product line includes permanent magnetic chucks, round magnetic plate chucks, and other workholding devices used in metalworking, toolrooms, and manufacturing environments. Suburban products are commonly found in grinding, milling, EDM, and inspection operations where secure, repeatable clamping of ferromagnetic workpieces is required. The brand's round magnetic plate chucks are available in a range of diameters, from 100 mm to 300 mm, with standard or fine pole spacing to accommodate different workpiece sizes and holding requirements. These chucks are permanent magnet types, requiring no electrical power for operation, which simplifies integration into existing setups and reduces energy consumption. The fine-pole versions are designed for small or thin workpieces, providing higher holding force per unit area, while standard pole spacing suits larger, more robust parts. Suburban workholding products are typically used on rotary tables, surface grinders, milling machines, and inspection stations. The construction of these chucks emphasizes durability and precision, with materials and manufacturing processes that maintain flatness and magnetic strength over time. 3G Electric supplies Suburban workholding products as part of its broader catalog of industrial equipment. With approximately 200 SKUs available, 3G Electric offers a range of Suburban magnetic chucks and related accessories to meet various clamping needs. The product listings include detailed specifications such as diameter, pole spacing, and manufacturer part numbers, enabling technical buyers to select the appropriate model for their application. 3G Electric serves a global customer base, shipping Suburban products worldwide. The company supports procurement specialists, plant engineers, and maintenance managers by providing access to Suburban's workholding solutions, along with technical information and quotation services. This allows customers to integrate Suburban chucks into their operations efficiently, whether for new installations or replacements. The Suburban line complements other industrial equipment offered by 3G Electric, such as burners, pumps, and gas controls, making it a single source for multiple plant needs. For technical buyers, Suburban magnetic chucks offer a combination of permanent magnetic operation, precise pole configurations, and robust construction. The availability of multiple diameters and pole spacings allows fine-tuning of holding force and workpiece compatibility. The chucks are suitable for both manual and automated environments, although they are primarily used in manual setups where their self-contained magnetic operation is advantageous. In summary, Suburban represents a established line of workholding products, and 3G Electric provides global access to these items with detailed specifications and support for industrial procurement.

Common Applications
