Malco HC1E Adjustment Sleeve
The Malco HC1E adjustment sleeve is a new hand-tool accessory designed for use with a hole cutter. It incorporates a set screw to secure the sleeve in place during cutting operations. This item suits technicians and maintenance workers who need a replacement or spare sleeve for compatible Malco hole-cutting tools.
Impact-rated construction for demanding use
The sleeve carries an impact-rated designation, meaning it is built to withstand the repetitive shock loads produced by impact drivers or hammer drills. This rating helps the component resist cracking or deformation during normal high-torque cutting cycles. No noise or power-draw figures are published for this accessory.
Set-screw locking and 4 3/8 in overall length
A set screw provides a positive mechanical lock that prevents the sleeve from backing out while the cutter is under load. The overall length measures 4 3/8 in, a dimension that determines how the sleeve seats in the tool body. Orders of $75 or more ship free from the supplier.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Malco HC1E adjustment sleeve onto my hole cutter, and what step is often missed?
Slide the sleeve over the cutter shank and tighten the set screw firmly; the step often missed is confirming the screw seats flat against the shank so the sleeve cannot rotate under load.
What maintenance or replacement will the Malco HC1E adjustment sleeve need over time?
Inspect the set screw threads and sleeve bore for wear; replace the sleeve if the bore elongates or the screw no longer clamps securely.
What limit appears first when the Malco HC1E adjustment sleeve is used continuously in impact applications?
The set screw clamping force is the first limit; sustained impact vibration can loosen the screw, so re-check torque regularly during extended use.
