Clipacore Fluemate Pro - QCFM2

The All New 2025 Clipacore Fluemate Pro is now out with a completely new design.

Many engineers would have experienced a frequent problem faced on-site when replacing a boiler; The Aluminium flue ducts jammed tight in the wall and then needs hammering out. Fluemate Pro is designed for precise and controlled drilling and upgrading a flue diameter during flue installations.

Fit the DuoCut Pro onto the 94mm barrel guide using a Core Adaptor. Then, insert the A-Taper side of the adaptor, just as you would a Guide Pin or Pilot Drill, into a larger core bit, ensuring precise alignment.

The Clipacore Fluemate Pro is made from high-quality Cr40 Chrome Steel, which offers high strength, excellent hardness and toughness, as well as good wear resistance, providing exceptional shear strength. It is specially heat-treated for enhanced durability.

3. Fit a Core Adaptor to the barrel guide like you would a normal core bit
4. Mount the barrel guide onto the Duocut Pro, essentially converting it into a guide pin
5. Fit a Core Adaptor to a 117mm core bit or greater
6. Insert the A-Taper side of the adaptor into your core bit
7. Give the barrel guide a tap to ensure the A-Taper has a secure fit in the adaptor
8. Select and fit an appropriate Drill Adaptor (Sold Separately) depending on the spindle thread size or if it is an SDS or HEX Chuck
9. Clip the Core Adaptor to the Drill Adaptor on the drill
10. Insert the barrel guide into the flue pipe
11. Before drilling, check that the drill handle is correctly positioned and firmly tightened
12. Adopt a comfortable and safe footing
13. Commence drilling until the outer core bit has scarred the wall approximately 25mm deep
14. Remove the drill from the flue pipe
15. Remove the Clipacore Duocut Adaptor Pro and barrel guide using a drift key
16. Continue drilling a new hole until through
17. Carefully remove the debris from the core bit, ensuring you don’t damage the core bit
