ABSTRACT:
A tool holding device for holding a tool bit to a drive spindle includes a body member having an axially extending bore defined therein for receipt of a tool shank. The body member includes a plurality of axially extending segments defining the bore. The segments are defined by axially extending slits in the body member. The slits extend from a front face of the body member rearward. The segments are radially compressible to grip upon a tool shank inserted into the bore when a radially compressive force is applied to the segments in the area of the slits. The bore defined by the segments has a tapered diameter that is greater at the front face of the body member and tapers to a lesser diameter in the axially rearward direction.
