Description
Cembre PPL1 coolant guide pin
The Cembre PPL1 coolant guide pin controls cooling mixture flow when using compatible long CY.L broach cutters for rail drilling. Its 100 mm length and 7 mm diameter distinguish it from the shorter PP-series pins and the larger-diameter PPL2.
Engineering Supplies lists this guide bit for long CY.L cutters up to 17 mm diameter. Cembre’s railway catalogue specifically identifies the CY.L 17 mm cutter. Check the exact cutter code when selecting a replacement.
PPL1 features and dimensions
- Manufacturer: Cembre
- Part number: PPL1

Choosing the correct guide bit
First, identify the cutter series and diameter. The pin diameter is different from the hole diameter that the broach cutter produces. Therefore, use the cutter code and the guide-pin dimensions together when checking compatibility.
For larger long cutters, the PPL2 coolant guide pin measures 100 mm by 8 mm and suits CY.L cutters from 18–40 mm. For short cutters, check the appropriate PP-series pin instead.
Fitting and technical information
Place the PPL1 into the rear of the cutter before locating the cutter in the drill spindle. Then follow the assembly and coolant instructions supplied with your Cembre drilling equipment.
