KP-60 Front Housing 536K02
The #536K02 Front Housing is an OEM-grade replacement component manufactured by KUPA, designed specifically for their KP-60 series handpieces (e.g., KP-60, KP-60A). This front housing forms the structural nose section of the handpiece, housing the spindle assembly, collet/chuck interface, bearings and front-seal system. A worn or damaged front housing can lead to misalignment, bit wobble, vibration, or premature wear of internal components. Replacing the housing restores proper structural alignment and helps maintain the smooth high-speed performance for which the KP-60 is known.

Installation Tips
-
Ensure your current handpiece uses part #536K02. Some units or revisions may use different housing part numbers.
-
Inspect your existing housing and front nose for cracks, distortions or wear — installing a new housing onto a damaged interior may not fully resolve performance issues.
-
Unplug and ensure the handpiece is fully stopped before disassembly.
-
Remove the collet/chuck and front nose housing to access the front housing.
-
Clean the mounting surfaces, check the bearings and spindle for wear or damage.
-
Install the new housing, ensuring proper alignment of the spindle and front bearings, then re-assemble the tool.
-
After reassembly, run under no-load (no bit) at low speed to verify smooth rotation, minimal vibration or noise, before returning to normal use.
