Water inlet replacement for those Chinese spindles

[ennova]

Hello,

I've read a few places of people "modifying" the inlets for these Chinese 2.2kw water cooled spindles. I was wondering where to buy some new inlets. I was setting mine up today and the inlet broke off as I was tightening it. So now it is stuck inside the spindle. I tried to use a extracting bit with some vice-grips to remove it and the extracting bit broke off... so if you have any advice of how to remove it I'd appreciate that as well... Anyways back to my main question. Does anyone know of a good place to find a replacement for these water inlets? Preferably with a bigger nozzle?

Thanks,
Ennova

Any hydraulic shop will have them, they usually have a wall full of weird hose->thread fittings in every size known to man.

Believe it or not, I have trouble keeping my spindle warm enough with the stock inlets and a 1/2 gallon reservoir!
