Hapstone R2 Clamp Adapter for TSPROF K03

GEARCONNECT is the family of clamp adapters to build "cross-platform" sharpening systems. An adapter connects the clamp bar of a host sharpening system to a clamp designed for another sharpening system. Adapters consist of 3D printed parts made of hard PLA plastic and steel bolts for maximum rigidity.

Profiles

When multiple clamps are used together, it’s very important to have the same length. Clamps made by different manufacturers vary in length, but GearConnect solves the problem. A GearConnect adapter extends the attached clamp to predefined length that we call “clamp profile”.

• Kadet Profile means all clamps have the length of Kadet clamps
• K03 Profile means all clamps have the length of K03 clamps

Don’t confuse the clamp profile with the clamp itself. K03 and Kadet sharpeners are clamp-compatible. K03 clamps can be used in Kadet, and Kadet clamps can be used in K03.

GearConnect adapters for TSProf are divided to two categories: K03 Profile and Kadet Profile. Adapters for K03 Profile are compatible with K03 and Kadet sharpeners. Although Kadet Profile can be used in K03, we don't recommend it.

K03 Profile is not native for Kadet. The diversity of K03 and Hapstone R2 clamps in conjunction with the profile extender (Kadet -> K03) makes the K03 Profile very attractive for Kadet users. However, Kadet with K03 clamps gives up one of the main Kadet sales points.

Please note that 3D-printed products and products with 3D-printed components may have natural variations due to the manufacturing process.

• 📷Illustrative Images. Product images are for reference only and may not precisely represent the actual item. Some images may depict a range of products or be for illustration purposes.
• 🎨Surface & Color Variations. Due to the nature of 3D printing, products may have minor surface inconsistencies, layer lines, or slight imperfections. Colors may also differ from product photos due to material variations and lighting conditions.
• 🛠️Engraving & Labeling Variability. Logos and brand names of Gritomatic, Leading Edge, and other companies, as well as labels including product and series names, country of origin, grit values, and functional labels, may be laser-engraved or missing on 3D-printed parts at our discretion. Their placement, orientation, size, depth, visibility, texture, and font may vary and could have minor defects.
• 🎨Color Selection & Variability. If a product has color variations, the selected option refers only to the primary color of 3D-printed components. Non-3D-printed parts and secondary colors are not affected by this selection. If the product does not offer color choices, the actual color of 3D-printed parts is at our discretion.

These variations do not affect the functionality of the product. By purchasing, you acknowledge and accept these characteristics as part of the 3D printing process.
