Sandvik Coromant 5728897 CAT50 Modular Adapter C6

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5728897 is a modular tool holding system adapter designed for CAT50 taper spindles. It connects the machine spindle to modular tooling heads in the C6 modular system size, enabling fast and repeatable tool changes in production machining environments. The adapter features through-coolant capability, allowing cutting fluid to pass directly to the tool tip for effective heat management and chip evacuation. With a body diameter of 2.4803 inches, a projection of 1.9685 inches, and an overall length of 5.9764 inches, this adapter is sized for heavy-duty machining centers. Installation is performed by qualified machine tool technicians or skilled machinists.

This adapter is suited for use on machining centers equipped with CAT50 spindle tapers. The C6 modular interface allows it to accept a wide range of interchangeable modular cutting heads and tool bodies within the same system family. Through-coolant support makes it appropriate for high-speed or deep-cavity operations where directed coolant flow is critical to tool life and workpiece quality. Typical installations are found in high-production horizontal and vertical machining centers in metalworking shops and manufacturing facilities.

Compatibility

Designed for use with CAT50 taper spindle machining centers and compatible C6 modular tooling system components. Specific compatible machine models or replacement part numbers were not provided in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or machine tool technician. Power down and lock out the machining center before mounting or removing the adapter from the spindle. Inspect the CAT50 taper and adapter taper bore for contamination, burrs, or wear prior to assembly, as surface condition directly affects runout and clamping integrity. Follow the machine tool manufacturer's draw-bar torque and retention knob specifications during installation.
