6" Leaf Type Air Adaptor
# 6' Leaf Type Air Adaptor: High-Performance Pneumatic Core Adaptor for Efficient Roll Handling

## What is a 6' Leaf Type Air Adaptor?

A **6' Leaf Type Air Adaptor** is a pneumatic core adaptor designed to convert a larger air shaft into a **6-inch (152.4 mm) core size**, allowing manufacturers to handle different roll core diameters using the same air shaft. The adaptor features precision-engineered steel leaves that expand uniformly when compressed air is applied, ensuring a secure grip, excellent torque transmission, and smooth machine operation.

It is widely used in paper, plastic film, flexible packaging, foil, textile, and printing industries where fast roll changes and reliable performance are essential.

## How Does a 6' Leaf Type Air Adaptor Work?

The 6' Leaf Type Air Adaptor is fitted over an existing air shaft. When compressed air is supplied through the shaft, the internal rubber bladder inflates and pushes the steel leaves outward. These leaves expand evenly around the inside of the 6-inch roll core, providing a firm and balanced grip.

After production is complete, the air is released, allowing the leaves to retract for quick and easy roll removal. This pneumatic mechanism helps reduce downtime and improves production efficiency.
