Tork Craft Pig Tail for Bench Grinders 16mm Left Hand
Heading: 16 mm arbor fit, left-hand threaded pig tail for bench grinders
The Tork Craft TCPT016-01 pig tail is a left-hand threaded accessory designed for bench grinders with a 16 mm spindle. It allows secure mounting of grinding wheels, cutting discs, polishing wheels and other bench-grinder attachments, ensuring stable and safe operation in high-duty workshop or industrial environments.
With a robust design and purpose-built fitment this pig tail supports frequent wheel changes and delivers reliable performance when used as part of a professional tool-kit or on job-site equipment.
Extra Information
- Check that your bench grinder uses a 16 mm spindle and requires a left-hand threaded accessory before purchasing.
- Always clean the spindle and wheel bore before mounting to ensure proper seating and balance.
- Use wheels that match the grinder’s rated RPM and ensure they are correctly matched to the pig tail accessory and mounting hardware.
Pro Tip
- When fitting a new wheel, hand-tighten first, then secure with the locking nut. Run the grinder at no-load speed briefly and listen/feel for any wobble—correct immediately before full-load use.
Features
- 16 mm arbor size – fits grinders with 16 mm spindle.
- Left-hand thread orientation – built for machines requiring left-hand mounting.
- Heavy-duty construction – designed for workshop or industrial use.
- Quick-change compatible – supports fast, secure attachment of grinding or cutting wheels.
Benefits
- Enhanced safety: The left-hand thread keeps the wheel from loosening during spindle rotation and reduces the risk of accidents.
- Smoother operation: Proper fit and stable mounting help minimise vibration and improve wheel life and performance.
- Fast maintenance: Ideal for tools that require frequent wheel changes—reducing downtime and improving productivity.
- Professional durability: Built for regular, heavy use in workshop or job-site environments, not just occasional application.
Safety
- Switch off and unplug the grinder before installing or removing any wheel or accessory.
- Ensure the wheel is free of cracks and rated for the grinder’s max RPM before mounting.
- After mounting, run the grinder at no-load speed briefly to check for vibration or imbalance before full operation.
- Use appropriate eye, ear and dust protection for all grinding work.
