This cam component (part number 536K06) is an OEM-specified part for the KUPA KP-60 / KP-60A (and possibly compatible KP-series) handpieces. It serves a key mechanical role in the collet/chuck mechanism — the cam acts as the interface that allows the ball bearings (cam balls) to engage and release the collet mechanism when changing bits.

Features

  • Ensures correct and smooth operation of the collet/chuck mechanism, which prevents bit slippage and improves operator safety.

  • Replacing a worn or damaged cam can reduce bit-wobble or chuck failure, thereby preserving the performance and longevity of the handpiece.

  • Using the correct OEM part helps maintain fit, alignment and expected tolerances in precision handpieces like the KP-60/KP-60A.

  • Relatively inexpensive maintenance item compared to major assemblies — replacing this cam can save significant downtime or repair cost.

  • Dimensions: OD ~ 12.61 mm (0.49″) | ID ~ 6.64 mm (0.26″) | Thickness ~ 4 mm (0.16″).

Installation Tips

  • Confirm your specific handpiece revision uses part # 536K06 (some older or different models may use a different cam design).

  • Inspect the existing cam area for wear, damage or missing cam balls; if these are compromised, installing only the cam may not restore full function.

  1. Unplug the handpiece and ensure it is fully stopped before disassembly.

  2. Remove the collet/chuck and front nose housing to access the cam mechanism.

  3. Remove the old cam, clean out any debris, metal shavings or lubricant in the cam ball area.

  4. Install the new 536K06 cam, ensuring correct orientation and that the cam-balls and corresponding pockets are aligned.

  5. Re-assemble the handpiece and test under a no-bit (unloaded) condition to verify that the collet/clamp mechanism operates smoothly and without excessive play.
