Tubes and connection kit for external shanks
Assemble your coolant connection correctly by using the connection kit included in your start-up tool kit. Click on the image to get your connections right.
For the tube connector on the machine interface side, use for ex. a 9 mm drill and thread for G or R 1/8 thread.
The tube is reinforced with high tensile stainless steel for high mechanical resistance to resist wear of chips and tough environments. The inner tube is made of smooth PTFE that is chemically inert and allows for wide range of coolants including oils, air, gases at high pressures.

EasyFix sleeves for internal boring bars
Your start-up kit for internal boring bars with high precision coolant comes with EasyFix sleeves for reduced set-up time. A spring plunger mounted in the sleeve clicks into a groove in the bar to guarantee the correct centre height. The slot in the cylindrical sleeve is metallic sealed which allows the existing coolant supply system to be used. The metallic sealing offers good performance also for high coolant pressure.
Never use the EasyFix sleeves for boring bars with flats, as the groove is essential to find the correct centre height.
