Shaft Adapters for Connecting Slip Joint, Key Tip Shafts & Handpieces or Adding Duplex Spring Connections

Adapters do not come with warranties, especially since duplex springs are subject to breakage. These adapters are more likely to be useful to experienced flex shaft users than beginners. Slip joint connections are more commonly used in Europe than they are in the US. Foredom Key Tip handpiece and shaft connections are used by the majority of Foredom Flex Shaft users

HP770 Shaft Adapter connects a slip joint handpiece with a key tip flexible shaft connection.

HP771 Shaft Adapter connects a key tip handpiece with a slip joint flexible shaft connection. Also works with other tools with key tip connections, e.g. Kate Wolf’s Belt Sander.

Foredom offers 5 handpieces that come with duplex springs. The Adapters HP775  and HP776 can be added to handpieces that do not have duplex springs

HP775 Duplex Adapter adds a Duplex Spring between key tip shaft and key tip handpiece. Duplex Springs allow greater flexing at the handpiece end of the shaft for more subtle, finer movement of the handpiece. Not for use with H.50 handpieces or with Foredom Filer, Angle Grinder or Belt Sander Attachments.

HP776 Duplex Adapter connects a key tip shaft and slip joint style handpieces. Turns any slip joint style handpiece, including the H.30SJ into a duplex spring handpiece. Duplex Springs allow greater flexing at the handpiece end of the shaft for more subtle, finer movement of the handpiece. Not for use with Foredom Filer, Angle Grinder or Belt Sander Attachments.
