The Proxxon long-neck grinder is a precision instrument for detail tile work — but chuck a disc straight into the collet and you can fight the collet wanting to spin, which lets the blade wander, loads up the tool's bearings, and costs you the clean edge you reached for the Proxxon to get. The DiStar Support adapter fixes that. It mounts the disc and braces it against the tool, eliminating collet rotation and giving the blade a rigid, stable platform — so every score and grind tracks true.
It's built for the DiStar discs you're already running. The Support fits Proxxon LHW, LWB (including the LWB/A), and WP grinders, and works with DiStar discs that have a 5.8 mm or 9.6 mm bore — including the razor-thin DiStar Butterfly 45 mm blade — plus Nectar and Soft Edge grinding discs with a 5.8 mm bore. Add it to your Proxxon LWB/A setup and you get cleaner cuts, more controlled grinding, and less wear on the tool over the long haul. It's the kind of small, inexpensive part that quietly makes an expensive tool perform the way it's supposed to.
Pro tip: Seat the disc fully and confirm the Support is snug before you spin up — a properly braced disc is the whole point, and a loose one gives back the wobble you bought this to eliminate. Keep water on the blade for wet cuts to protect both the edge and the tool.
