SUBURBAN

SUBURBAN is a manufacturer of precision workholding and inspection equipment for the metalworking industry. The company's product line includes magnetic chucks, sine plates, angle plates, straight edges, and related accessories used in surface grinding, milling, and quality control applications. SUBURBAN components are designed to provide repeatable positioning and dimensional accuracy in shop-floor and toolroom environments. Products are available in a range of sizes and configurations, with specifications such as flatness tolerances down to 0.0002 in, parallelism tolerances of 0.0002 in to 0.002 in, and straightness tolerances of 0.0005 in. Materials include cast iron, hardened steel, and steel, with options for slotted or mounting-hole patterns. 3G Electric stocks over 190 SKUs of SUBURBAN workholding and inspection tools, including magnetic sine plates, compound sine plates, slotted cast iron angle plates, hardened steel angle plates, and steel straight edges. Each SKU is supported by datasheets and logistics coordination for global shipment. The range covers standard pole magnetic sine plates, compound sine plates with mounting holes, and angle plates in sizes from 3 in x 3 in x 4 in to 12 in x 8 in x 9 in. Straight edges are available in metric/SAE graduations with square-edge profiles. These products are used in applications requiring precise angular setup, workpiece alignment, and dimensional verification. 3G Electric provides access to SUBURBAN's technical specifications and part numbers, enabling engineers and procurement specialists to select the correct equipment for their machining or inspection processes.

Common Applications

  • Surface grinding setup — SUBURBAN magnetic sine plates (e.g., MSP-126-S2) for angular workpiece positioning
  • Inspection and quality control — SUBURBAN steel straight edges (e.g., SE-12-TS) for checking flatness of machine tables
  • Toolroom fixturing — SUBURBAN slotted cast iron angle plates (e.g., SAW-120908) for holding workpieces during milling
  • Compound angle machining — SUBURBAN compound sine plates (e.g., SPC-1212-S2) for multi-axis angular setups
  • Precision grinding of small parts — SUBURBAN hardened steel angle plates (e.g., AP-334-S0) with 0.0002 in tolerance for tight-tolerance workholding

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about SUBURBAN from 3G Electric.

What materials are SUBURBAN angle plates made from?

SUBURBAN angle plates are available in cast iron and hardened steel. Cast iron plates are machined and typically have flatness and parallelism tolerances of 0.002 in. Hardened steel plates offer tighter tolerances, such as 0.0002 in square and parallel. Both types are designed for use in surface grinding, inspection, and setup applications.

What is the difference between a SUBURBAN standard pole magnetic sine plate and a compound sine plate?

A standard pole magnetic sine plate, like the MSP-126-S2, uses a single pivot axis to set an angle relative to the base. A compound sine plate, such as the SPC-1212-S2, has two pivot axes, allowing simultaneous angular adjustments in two planes. Compound plates are used for complex angular setups in grinding and machining operations.

What tolerances can I expect from SUBURBAN straight edges?

SUBURBAN steel straight edges, such as model SE-12-TS, have a straightness tolerance of 0.0005 in. They are available with metric/SAE graduations and a square edge profile. These straight edges are used for checking flatness and straightness of machine tables, workpieces, and other surfaces.

Are SUBURBAN sine plates available with magnetic holding?

Yes, SUBURBAN offers magnetic sine plates with standard pole construction, such as the MSP-126-S2. These plates use permanent magnets to hold ferromagnetic workpieces during angular setup. They are available in various sizes, including 12 in x 6 in, and are designed for surface grinding applications.

What hole patterns are available on SUBURBAN slotted cast iron angle plates?

SUBURBAN slotted cast iron angle plates feature hole patterns that vary by size. For example, the SAW-120908 has (11) 11/16 in holes, while the SAO-060504 has (7) 9/16 in holes. These slots allow for clamping and mounting of workpieces or fixtures. Hole styles are specified in the product datasheets.
