Centaur Rdf - 032 Series 38 Af Collet 13/64 to 7/32 in

Product Description

The CENTAUR RDF - 032 is a Series 38 AF collet designed for precision toolholding applications in machining operations. This collet accepts workpieces or tooling with a minimum capacity of 13/64 inches and a maximum capacity of 7/32 inches (0.2188 inches decimal), making it suited for close-tolerance holding across that range. With an overall diameter of 0.56 inches and an overall length of 1.03 inches, the RDF - 032 is a compact collet built for Series 38 AF collet chucks. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this type of collet when secure, concentric clamping is required for drilling, milling, or turning operations.

The RDF - 032 is intended for use in Series 38 AF collet chuck systems. It is a single-piece collet suited for light industrial and production machining environments where consistent, repeatable tool or workpiece holding within the 13/64 to 7/32 inch capacity range is required. Typical applications include CNC machining centers, manual mills, and toolroom lathes equipped with compatible Series 38 AF chuck bodies.

Installation Notes

Collet installation and removal should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine powered down and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the collet body and chuck taper are clean and free of chips or debris before seating the collet. Do not exceed the collet capacity range, as overloading can cause tool slip or collet damage. Inspect the collet for wear or cracking at regular service intervals.
