Loc-Line 1/4" Modular Hose System
The 1/4" Loc-Line system is the most compact of the modular ball-and-socket coolant and air hose ranges. The reduced bore makes it the right choice for bench grinders, manual lathes, small CNC machines, tool-and-cutter grinders and any application where space is tight or lower flow volumes are sufficient — typical use cases include single-point coolant streams onto drills and end mills under 12mm, surface grinding wheels, and precision air-blow applications. Like every Loc-Line size, the segments snap together by hand without tools and hold their position under pump pressure and vibration.
What's in the 1/4" range
The 84 products in this collection cover the complete 1/4" system — flexible hose segments and segment packs, assembly kits (hose + manifold + nozzle bundled), flat-fan and round nozzles for different spray patterns, NPT and BSPT machine connectors to suit standard coolant pump outlets, manifolds, valves, T-fittings and adapters to step up to the larger systems.
When to step up a size
If you need more coolant volume than the 1/4" bore can flow, step up to the 1/2" Loc-Line system — the standard size for most CNC machining centres. For high-flow applications on larger machines, see the 3/4" Loc-Line system.

People Also Ask — 1/4" Loc-Line Modular Hose System
Q: Why is the 1/4" bore the most compact of the Loc-Line coolant and air hose ranges, and what does that suit it to?
The reduced bore suits bench grinders, manual lathes, small CNC machines, tool-and-cutter grinders and any application where space is tight or lower flow volumes are sufficient.
Q: What single-point coolant application is the 1/4" Loc-Line system specifically suited to on drills and end mills?
Single-point coolant streams onto drills and end mills under 12mm, as well as surface grinding wheels and precision air-blow applications.
Q: How many individual products make up the 1/4" Loc-Line range at AIMS?
84 products, spanning flexible hose segments and segment packs, assembly kits, nozzles, machine connectors, manifolds, valves, T-fittings and adapters.
Q: When would you step up from the 1/4" Loc-Line system to the 1/2" or 3/4" system?
Step up to the 1/2" system — the standard size for most CNC machining centres — for more coolant volume than the 1/4" bore can flow, or to the 3/4" system for high-flow applications on larger machines.
Q: Do 1/4" Loc-Line segments hold their position once assembled, or do they need ongoing support?
Yes — like every Loc-Line size, the segments snap together by hand without tools and hold their position under pump pressure and vibration.
