Water Swivel Adapters

Water Swivel Adapters (also known as drill head assemblies) are to supply high water, coolant, or air through the center of your diamond drills. Water Swivel Adapters/Drill Head Assemblies cools both diamond drills and material in zone of drilling.

Water swivel adapters fit just about any type of drilling equipment and available with different threads and mountings. These can be used with diamond tools, not just hollow core drills. Using a water swivel adapter is highly recommended for most diamond drilling applications. Please See Advantages of using water swivel adapters below

Why Use Adapters?

Why Use Water Swivel Adapters

Best and most efficient way of drilling ultra hard materials
Ultra Hard Materials are very hard and dense. Highly optimized drilling parameters (not just the diamond drill itself) is required to be affective on these more challenging applications. Running high pressure of coolant through center of the drill right into the drilling zone has proven to be most effective method
Industry Materials

Best & most efficient way to obtain (extract) core samples and Remove Center Plugs

diameter drills

Whether you are drilling a hole or trying to obtain core sample. Running coolant through center of drill is the most effective way to automatically extract (dislodge) the core sample from the core drill tube/barrel fast and easy. No need to stop the drilling operation in order to manually extract the core. Painstaking process that can possibly ruin structural integrity of the sample, and or ruin the diamond core drill itself. Strong coolant pressure will wash out material debris (center plugs) stuck in center of your drill. Center plugs restrict coolant flow to center of drill and prevent coolant from reaching the diamond section. Your drill will start to drill dry, significantly reducing your drill life, material surface finish, and deteriorating overall performance. Center plugs preventing water reaching the diamond section, are behind 90% of all drill wreckage. Running Coolant through center becomes crucial specially for smaller diameter drills and longe depths.

Improve surface finish quality and reduce material chipping

Chipping and material blowout at hole exit usually occurs due

Increase Diamond Drill Life up to 350%, Improve Drilling Rates & Prevent Drill Breakage

You will find the more pressure you have on your coolant, usually the better your drilling results will be. Heat is the worse enemy for diamond crystal. Without high pressure of coolant to provide constant coolant and material swarf/chip removal at cutting zone, the diamond crystal will start to oxidize and glaze over. Loose its sharp point, crack or fall out. The bond matrix holding the diamond crystals in place will heat up in turn. The diamond drill may stop drilling altogether, develop burn marks on diamond edge, loose its form, or the diamond crown (tip) may separate from the steel tube/body. Running High Pressure of Coolant through center of drill is also the only most affective way of drilling holes beyond 1.0" (25.4mm) in depth. Submerging Material in coolant or applying coolant from an outside source is not able to affectively reach the drilling zone. Drilling speeds will taper off, and number of issues indicated above will arise.

Drill Breakage
Drilling Speed
Increase Drilling Speed & Feed Rate

Constant Coolant Pressure will reduce amount of heat generated and temperature found in the drilling zone. Insuring maximum effectiveness and working potentials of diamond crystals placed inside diamond drill bond matrix not overheated, will not loose its sharp points, maintain its firm shape, and kerf edge/form all the way through the life of the core drill. The drill will drill freely at consistent speed, requiring very minimal amount of dressing. This translates into faster drilling speeds, faster output, more consistency, and above all savings in money and time.

Prevent micro cracks & Preserve Material Micro Structure that arises from heat generated while drillings
  • Preserve material true micro structure
  • Obtain More Consistent overall performance
  • Optimize your Diamond Drilling Operation to ultimate point of efficiency
Smart Cut Coolant
Drilling Equipment
Used on almost any Drilling Equipment

Water Swivel Adapters will fit into universal drilling machine chuck or proper collet of almost any drilling machine. Different water swivel adapters are designed for different applications and industries they are used in. Main differences include shank/shaft diameter, and male or female thread size. Each water swivel adapter is designed to mate with diamond drill collet. They should have compatible thread sizes. For example if water swivel adapter has male thread, the diamond drill should have female thread. And vice versa

Drilling Equipment Used On:
  • Drill Press
  • Hand Held Drills
  • Angle/Hand Held Grinders
  • Electric Hand Held Drills
  • Milling Machines
  • CNC Machines
  • Other Equipment

Minimize Drill & Material Overheating

Frictional heat produced at the working face of diamond crown (tip) must be disposed immediately. Otherwise the diamond crystal inside the diamond core drill tip will become rapidly damaged by oxidation and graphitization. Excessive heat generated while drilling will also damage the bond matrix holding the diamonds in place.

Insure More Consistent Drilling Performance

Material Debris (swarf particles) generated while drilling should be removed as soon as they are produced. When this material debris is not removed rapidly, diamond wear increases through abrasion caused by the presence of excessive coarse micro material fragments.

Water is the most common coolant used for many drilling applications. It is always a good idea to pump an adequate supply of water through the center of the drill. So that an uninterrupted flow is maintained flushing across the working surface of the drill diamond section. In this way diamond crystal and the bond matrix are both kept sufficiently cool. And material debris is removed as soon as it is generated.

Reduce Friction between material and drill

Coolant or Water also penetrates the micro-cracks witch are generated upon impact of material and diamond drill. Under ideal conditions, the material will absorb water/coolant, hence becoming completely saturated. In this state the material is weaker and more easily drillable.

The coolant surface tension also plays an important part in the drilling operation. Usually the lower the surface tension, the easier it is for the coolant to enter the micro cracks. Coolant with a lower surface tension also wets the diamonds more easily. Most users find that by lowering the surface tension of their coolant, resulted in better cooling (wetting) of their diamond, and more effective overall cooling. Lower surface tension also improves material debris lubrication, promoting efficient removal.
