Transform your 3-inch shaft into a 6-inch core shaft with just one touch! Maximize the use of your existing shafts—far more economical than purchasing a new 6-inch shaft!
The Air Shaft Adapter is designed to be mounted on an air shaft to change the core diameter it can grip. A common application is to attach the adapter to a 3-inch paper tube or plastic core shaft, enabling it to handle 6-inch paper tubes or plastic cores. This eliminates the need to manufacture a dedicated 6-inch shaft, making your existing shafts more versatile. Even if you typically use 3-inch cores but occasionally require 6-inch cores, the Air Shaft Adapter provides a practical and cost-effective solution. 1)Compatible with 6-inch cores using your 3-inch shaft ・Much lighter and more economical compared to manufacturing a dedicated 6-inch shaft. ・Easier handling than a 6-inch shaft, improving work efficiency. 2)Effective utilization of existing shafts ・Use your current shafts as they are—no additional processing required. ・Available for a wide range of core sizes, from 4 inches up to 12 inches.
