Mount a TCS2B Adaptor into your TCS3B machine with a TRE3/2 Reducing Adaptor
The TRE3/2 Reducing Adaptor is required when you need to mount a TCS2B Adaptor with Safety Clutch into a TradeMax Tapping Machine that natively uses a TCS3B Adaptor with Safety Clutch.
Reducing Adaptors are required when a customers are going from a larger size TCS Adaptor with Safety Clutch to a smaller size TCS Adaptor with Safety Clutch.
Sometimes customers have found that machines with a larger native tap have required a smaller size Adaptor with Safety Clutch to get the job done. This is when the TRE3/2 reducing adaptor has become a welcomed addition to the workshop.
Example: DMT-32 Electric Tapping Machine (uses a TCS3B Adaptor with Safety Clutch)
- A customer wants to use an ISO M16 tap which is not available for the TCS3B Adaptor with Safety Clutch.
- The ISO M16 tap is made to fit a TCS2B Adaptor with Safety Clutch.
- Therefore the TCS2B Adaptor with Safety Clutch can be used in a machine designed for the TCS3B when coupled with a TRE3/2 Reducing Adaptor.
This expands the range of taps a purchaser can then use in a machine designed for the TCS3B Adaptor.
A complete chart of available adaptors which fit each tap size can be found on our Adaptor (Shank Dimensions) page (opens in a new page).
