05108816-Blade-56-High-Pressure-Coning-Tools.998.3-1
Product Name: High-Pressure Coning Tool Blade (9/16″) – Part No. 05108816
Description:
This component is a replacement cutting blade for the 9/16 inch (.56) high-pressure hand coning tool assembly used in waterjet cutting systems. According to the official parts diagram for High Pressure Coning Tools (Table 12-36), this blade is listed as Item 1 for the .56 (9/16 inch) size .
The blade functions as the precision cutting component within the hand coning tool assembly (P/N 05108840) . Its primary purpose is to machine the critical 60-degree cone seat onto the end of 9/16 inch high-pressure stainless steel tubing . This cone surface is essential for creating a leak-free, metal-to-metal seal when the tube is assembled with a standard high-pressure gland nut and coned insert . The blade is a consumable wear part, manufactured from high-quality hardened tool steel for long service life .
Applications:
Cutting the 60-degree cone seat on 9/16 inch high-pressure tubing ends for waterjet systems .
Used as a replacement cutting element for the Hand Coning Tool Assembly (.56, P/N 05108840) .
Essential for fabricating custom-length high-pressure lines and maintaining the fluid system of a waterjet cutting machine .
Suitable for preparing tubing for systems operating at pressures up to 60,000 psi (4,137 bar) and higher .
Features:
Precision Ground: Manufactured to exacting tolerances to produce a smooth, perfectly angled 60-degree cone seat for reliable sealing .
Hardened Tool Steel Construction: Made from durable, hardened steel to withstand the demands of cutting into work-hardened stainless steel tubing .
Replaceable Wear Component: The blade is a consumable part of the coning tool set and is designed to be replaced when it becomes dull to maintain cutting accuracy .
Part of a Standardized Kit: This blade (05108816) is the designated component for the .56 size, part of a complete family including sizes for .25 (05108808) and .38 (05108824) tubing .
Maintenance:
Usage Guidelines:
Use Cutting Oil: Always apply a high-quality, sulfur-based cutting oil to the tube and the blade during the coning process. This lubricates the cutting action, prevents galling (seizing) of the stainless steel, and significantly extends the life of the blade . Apply lubricant frequently and liberally throughout the cutting operation .
Use as a Matched Set: For best results, always use the blade as part of the complete, matched hand coning tool assembly (P/N 05108840) .
Proper Alignment: Ensure the tube is securely held in the tool's collet and aligned with the blade guide before beginning the cutting operation to ensure a concentric cone .
Inspection & Care:
Inspect for Dullness: Regularly inspect the cutting edges of the blade. If the blade requires excessive force to cut, produces a rough or torn surface finish on the cone, or fails to cut a complete 360-degree cone, it is likely dull and must be replaced immediately .
Clean After Use: After each use, thoroughly clean the blade and the entire coning tool assembly of metal shavings, cutting oil, and debris to prevent rust and maintain precision . Use compressed air or a small brush to remove chips .
Storage: Store the complete tool set in a clean, dry, protective case to prevent damage to the precision blade .
Replace, Do Not Sharpen: When the blade becomes dull, it should be replaced with a new OEM blade. Attempting to sharpen the blade can alter its critical geometry, leading to improper cone angles and potential high-pressure leaks .
Full Depressurization (Critical): This tool is for preparing new or replacement tubing offline. Never use it on a pressurized system. Always follow lockout/tagout procedures and ensure the waterjet system is fully depressurized before any maintenance.
