About Foredom HP771 Adapter — Slip-Joint Shaft to Key-Tip Handpiece
Use your key-tip handpieces with a slip-joint flex shaft. The Foredom HP771 adapter connects a standard key-tip handpiece to the handpiece end of a slip-joint flexible shaft, expanding the tools you can use with your existing shaft connection.
It is especially useful for workshops working with European-style slip-joint systems and Foredom key-tip handpieces. Foredom also confirms compatibility with key-tip tools such as Kate Wolf's Belt Sander.
Connection direction
Slip-joint flexible shaft → HP771 adapter → key-tip handpiece or tool.
Select this adapter by the shaft and handpiece connections. A motor model alone does not establish compatibility: the shaft installed on that motor must have a slip-joint connection at the handpiece end.
Compatibility guide
| Your shaft connection | Handpiece or tool connection | HP771 suitability |
|---|---|---|
