2L Bottle Adapter for Noga Mini Cool Cutting Fluid Applicator

*This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated

This is a 2L bottle adapter for the Noga Mini-Cool Cutting Fluid Applicator. (http://amzn.to/28Z3dfm)

This adapter securely grips and holds the cutting fluid pickup tube in the neck of the bottle, preventing it from slipping out, spilling or letting chips and debris in. The conical shape of the cap is ideal for hanging in a bracket. Keep spare bottles of mixed coolant handy and swap them in when you run out.

To use the adapter, slip the wing nut and the cap over the pickup tube. Then slide the two part clamp around the tube and through the cap. Install the wing nut loosely. Screw the cap on the bottle, slide the tube to the desired depth and then tighten the wing nut to clamp the pickup tube.

Notes:

I printed this in PETG because of its superior layer adhesion, but ABS would also work well. Support isn't strictly required, but I used it so the threads in the cap would come out cleaner.
