Like, for example, flexible connections using plastics which can only withstand pressures of between 2 bar and maximum 6 bar.

• Misalignment caused by recoil
• Only capable of supplying low, non-focused cooling power
• Of limited use when grinding with Borazon and diamond cutting disks
• Sensitive to vibrations, requiring frequent readjustment and replacement.

Our new stainless steel coolant feed systems make these problems a thing of the past. Flexipipe:

• is dimensionally stable and versatile. The self-sealing ball socket joints allow flexible adjustment of the coolant feed system before final tightening, allowing the coolant stream to be pre-adjusted at low pressures.
• After tightening the lock-nuts the coolant feed system is rigid and stable, even during pressure build-up and continuous operation.
• Suitable for high pressures up to 150 bar, directing a controlled flow of coolant on to high speed machining processes - with pinpoint precision.
• Stainless steel make this system ideal for extended operations, guaranteeing long lifetimes - even with aggressive fluids.
