Sandvik Coromant 6408305 CAT50 to Capto Taper Adapter

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 6408305 is a CAT50 outside taper to Capto modular taper adapter designed for use in CNC machining centers where a CAT50 spindle interface must be paired with a C6 Capto inside modular connection. The adapter features an 80mm projection, a 63mm nose diameter, and integrated through-coolant capability, allowing high-pressure coolant to be delivered directly to the cutting zone. This type of adapter is installed by machinists and tooling setup technicians in production and job-shop environments running modular tooling systems.

This adapter is suited for use in horizontal and vertical machining centers equipped with CAT50 taper spindles where Capto-based tooling assemblies are required. The C6 inside modular connection accommodates Capto C6 cutting units and extensions, making this adapter a practical interface component for modular tooling configurations. It is commonly used in medium-to-heavy cutting operations in aerospace, automotive, and general metalworking applications where rigidity and coolant delivery are critical.

Key Features

• CAT50 outside taper interfaces directly with standard CAT50 spindles
• C6 Capto inside modular connection for compatibility with Capto C6 tooling assemblies
• 80mm projection provides clearance for extended reach setups
• 63mm nose diameter supports rigid tool clamping
• Integrated through-coolant design supports high-pressure coolant delivery to the cutting edge
• Overall length of 181.8mm suitable for a range of spindle-to-workpiece configurations

Compatibility

Designed for use with CAT50 spindle interfaces and Capto C6 modular tooling assemblies. Consult the SANDVIK COROMANT Capto tooling system documentation to confirm compatibility with specific cutting units and extensions.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the adapter. Ensure the CAT50 taper shank and spindle taper bore are clean and free of chips or burrs before seating the adapter. Verify through-coolant port alignment with the machine spindle coolant supply before operation.
