**Detailed Description of the Item**
The live tool holder has a square footprint and solid build. The protruding shaft appears to be a driven spindle or tool output.

No obvious cracks or broken parts are visible in the photo. The shaft and housing look intact. The red tag suggests it is cataloged for service or inspection. The label should be photographed closer so part numbers can be read for faster repair quoting.
