HSK coolant tubes HSK form A, -B or -D holders must be equipped with a coolant tube. Using holders without a coolant tube could cause unseen machine spindle damage. DIN 69893 Form C, -E and -F do not require a coolant tube. Through coolant and sealing functions are provided by the locking unit. The coolant tube is ideally mounted in vertical direction – from the bottom to the top. In this manner the sealing ring is prevented from being compressed during location which would cause the loss of its sealing function. After mounting, the coolant pipe can be moved only to a minimum degree according to DIN (± 1°). O-Ring (grease prior to assembly). union nut coolant pipe coolant tube Installation Torque gures 1. The HSK holder must be clean, free of swarf and undamaged. 2. Grease the O-rings prior to assembly. 3.
