Loc-Line 41494 HAAS Short Lathe Adapter – 1/2″ HAAS to 1/4″ Loc-Line System (Pack of 4)

About This Product

The Loc-Line 41494 HAAS Short Lathe Adapter is a precision-designed coolant system connector that allows machinists to adapt compatible 1/2-inch HAAS lathe coolant ports to the versatile 1/4-inch Loc-Line modular hose system.

Manufactured by Lockwood Products, the makers of Loc-Line, these adapters provide a convenient solution for replacing traditional spherical ball-style coolant nozzles with adjustable, modular coolant delivery components.

The short adapter design provides a compact connection between the machine’s coolant port and the Loc-Line hose system, making it particularly useful in machining environments where available space is limited.

Each adapter features a connection designed for compatible 1/2-inch HAAS spherical (fish-eye) coolant ports and a 1/4-inch Loc-Line ball connection for attaching standard 1/4-inch Loc-Line hose segments and compatible accessories.

Once installed, the adapter allows operators to configure adjustable coolant delivery assemblies using Loc-Line hose segments, elbows, and nozzles.

This flexibility makes it easier to position coolant where it is needed during turning, drilling, boring, and other machining operations.

The adapters are manufactured from durable acetal copolymer, a material commonly used for industrial fluid-handling components because of its strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to many lubricants and coolants.

The 41494 package includes four short adapters, making it convenient for outfitting multiple coolant ports, maintaining spare components, or replacing existing adapters.

Unlike the longer Loc-Line 41495 adapter, which features a 2-inch body, the 41494 uses a short configuration for applications requiring minimal additional projection from the coolant port.

This product is intended primarily for industrial machine-tool coolant systems and is not specifically marketed as an aquarium fitting.

Features:

• Genuine Loc-Line component manufactured for the modular coolant hose system.
• Part number 41494 identifies the HAAS short lathe adapter package.

• Blue adapter body matches the standard color listed for this part number.
• Corrosion-resistant material is suited to many industrial coolant environments.
• Versatile coolant routing helps operators direct coolant toward the machining area.
• Compatible with multiple Loc-Line nozzle styles when connected to appropriate 1/4-inch hose segments.
• Convenient replacement component for existing compatible HAAS lathe coolant systems.
• Short adapter design is useful where tool clearance or space is limited.
• Modular installation supports future changes to the coolant delivery configuration.

Key Benefits

Upgrade Traditional HAAS Coolant Nozzles

The Loc-Line 41494 makes it possible to transition from compatible original HAAS spherical coolant outlets to the modular 1/4-inch Loc-Line system.

This gives machinists access to a variety of adjustable hose segments and nozzle configurations.

Compact Design for Limited Clearance

The short adapter’s approximately 7/8-inch overall length provides a compact connection.

It is especially useful where longer fittings might interfere with nearby tooling or machine components.

Flexible Coolant Direction

When combined with compatible Loc-Line modular hose components, the adapter provides the foundation for a coolant delivery system that can be adjusted to reach different machining positions.

Proper coolant positioning can help improve chip evacuation and cooling during machining operations.

Durable Industrial Construction

The acetal copolymer body provides strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to many commonly used machining fluids.

Convenient Four-Pack

Each package contains four adapters, allowing shops to replace multiple coolant connections or keep spare fittings available for maintenance.

Recommended Applications

CNC Lathes

Ideal for compatible HAAS lathes equipped with 1/2-inch spherical coolant ports.

Machine-Tool Coolant Upgrades

Use these adapters when converting a compatible machine-tool coolant arrangement to a modular Loc-Line delivery system.

Coolant Nozzle Replacement

Replace compatible original coolant connections and configure new hose assemblies using 1/4-inch Loc-Line components.

Industrial Maintenance

Keep replacement adapters available for maintenance, repair, and reconfiguration of coolant delivery equipment.

Custom Coolant Routing

Combine with compatible Loc-Line hose segments and nozzles to create adjustable coolant outlets tailored to a specific machining setup.

Installation and Usage Instructions

1. Confirm compatibility: Verify that the machine uses a compatible 1/2-inch HAAS spherical coolant port.
2. Shut down the machine: Turn off coolant flow and relieve any system pressure before working on the coolant connection.
3. Inspect the existing connection: Examine the port and retention hardware for damage, wear, or contamination.
4. Remove the original nozzle: Follow the machine manufacturer’s procedure for removing the existing spherical coolant nozzle.
5. Install the adapter: Fit the Loc-Line 41494 adapter into the compatible coolant port using the appropriate machine retention hardware and installation procedure.
6. Attach Loc-Line components: Connect compatible 1/4-inch Loc-Line hose segments and the desired nozzle configuration.
7. Position the coolant outlet: Direct the nozzle toward the intended machining area while maintaining adequate tool and workpiece clearance.
8. Test the assembly: Restore coolant flow cautiously and inspect for leaks, movement, or poor retention.
9. Verify clearance: Confirm that the entire coolant assembly remains clear of moving machine components throughout the operating cycle.

Never adjust or reposition a coolant fitting near moving tooling or rotating workpieces.

Package Contents

• 4 × Loc-Line 41494 HAAS Short Lathe Adapters

Not included: Loc-Line hose segments, coolant nozzles, assembly pliers, machine-tool retention hardware, and additional accessories unless separately specified.

Important Product Information

The Loc-Line 41494 is a short HAAS lathe coolant adapter, not a general-purpose threaded plumbing connector.

Before ordering, verify that your equipment uses the correct 1/2-inch HAAS spherical coolant-port configuration.

This adapter connects to the 1/4-inch Loc-Line modular hose system. It is not interchangeable with fittings intended for the larger 1/2-inch Loc-Line hose system.

The short 41494 adapter should also not be confused with the 41495, which is the longer, 2-inch HAAS lathe adapter.

Although Loc-Line components are sometimes used for custom fluid-routing projects, this specific adapter is designed for machine-tool coolant applications. Its suitability for potable water, aquarium circulation, submerged applications, or continuous saltwater exposure has not been established.

Always verify chemical compatibility and the pressure and temperature ratings of the complete assembly.
