Coolant distribution systems with 4 different sizing programmes for low, medium and high pressure. Ideal for both CNC fixed and sliding headstock lathes, vertical and horizontal machining centers, grinding machines or transfer machines.
| PROGRAM | THROUGH HOLE | PRESSURE RATING |
|---|---|---|
| DECA | 3 mm | 150 Bar / 2175 psi |
| HECTO | 6 mm | 100 Bar / 1450 psi |
| MEGA | 10.5 mm | 80 Bar / 1160 psi |
| GIGA | 16 mm | 80 Bar / 1160 psi |
General cooling outlet in machine-tool, turret of CNC lathe, stationary tool holder coolant outlet, driven tool holder, external cooling outlet in machining centre, etc.
Select according to required flow rate and coolant pressure available.
Identify thread type where system will connect. Example: BSPP 1/8”, NPT 1/8”, M8x1.
Depends on distance from machine outlet to delivery point.
Used when refrigerant outlets need to be divided.
Multiple nozzle designs available for different delivery requirements.
Coolant distribution system with flexible tubes braided in stainless steel, quick connectors, copper tubes, adaptors and distribution blocks in 2 different size programs for medium and high pressure. Ideal for both sliding and fixed headstock CNC lathes, multi-spindle lathes or transfer machines.

(Widely used in Sliding headstock CNC lathes, but also in Fixed headstock CNC lathes, Multi-spindle lathes or Transfer machines)
Coolant distribution block on machine's own connection or SCS coolant block.
MICRO(3.8 mm) or NANO (2.3 mm)
Select according to the required flow rate, the available pressure and the size of the tools to be cooled.
Identify the type of thread where to connect the coolant distribution system.
Example : M6x1, M8x1, BSPP 1/8”, NPT 1/8”, etc.
You can place a straight spacer, a 45° outlet (curved banjo) or a 90° outlet (banjo) and then connect a quick coupling, a flexible tube, a copper tube or directly these elements. If the thread of the distribution block does not match the thread of the range of banjo bolts, quick release couplings, flexible tubes, etc., you can use the necessary adaptor. If you fit a quick coupling, you can attach a flexible tube or a copper tube with the quick connection system.
Whether it is a flexible or copper tube, identify the required length. In case of selecting a flexible tube, identify the necessary length to connect the coolant distribution block to the tool. Special lengths are available under request. In case of selecting a copper tube to duct coolant from the distribution block to the cutting edge of the tool, then no additional parts are required.
Identify the type of thread on the shank of the tool or tool holder.
Example : M6x1, M8x1, BSPP 1/8”, NPT 1/8”, etc.
You can fit a straight spacer, a 45° outlet (curved banjo) or a 90° outlet (banjo) and then connect a quick coupling or attach the hose directly. If the thread of the distribution block does not match the thread of the range of spacers, banjo bolts, quick release couplings or hoses, you can use the necessary adapter. It must always include either on the connection side to the block or on the connection side to the tool at least one quick connection coupling.
If sealing is required (fittings with parallel threads), you can select the washers of the required size and material: COPPER or ALUMINUM.
