Allied Machine's Threaded Lathe Sleeves Maximize Coolant Flow
The sleeves are well suited for job shops that are using aging lathes, and are designed for use on machines that do not have the capability to run through-the-turret coolant.

Allied Machine and Engineering offers threaded lathe sleeves as a stocked-standard way to induce coolant to newer style toolholders without rear pipe taps. The sleeves are well suited for job shops that are using aging lathes and are designed for use on machines that do not have the capability to run through-the-turret coolant.
Allied Machine’s goal is to make new cutting tool advancements more accessible to aging machines where high-speed drilling was not thought possible. Across the general machining industry, customers are able to directly plumb in an external coolant line to the back of the sleeve using a standard ½ NPT or ½ BSP pipe fitting. This gives users the option to adapt external high-pressure pumps directly to a turret station to maximize pressure and flow for long/deep holes.
