Centaur Rdf - 071 Series 50 Af Collet 21/64-11/32 in

Product Description

The CENTAUR RDF - 071 is a Series 50 AF collet designed to hold workpieces or tooling within a capacity range of 21/64 inch to 11/32 inch (0.3438 inches maximum). With an overall diameter of 0.72 inches and an overall length of 1.16 inches, this collet is built for precision clamping in toolholding applications. It is sized for use in compatible Series 50 AF collet chucks and is typically installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC setup professionals who require consistent, repeatable gripping force across production runs.

This collet is suited for light-to-medium machining applications where close-tolerance workholding is required. The 21/64 to 11/32 inch capacity range makes it appropriate for holding small-diameter round stock, drills, end mills, or cylindrical tooling of matching shank size. It fits into Series 50 AF collet chuck systems and is a standard replacement or additional unit for shops running that toolholding platform.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with collet chuck systems. Ensure the spindle or chuck is fully powered down and at a complete stop before removing or seating any collet. Clean the collet taper and chuck bore of chips and debris prior to installation to ensure proper seating and runout performance. Do not force the collet into the chuck — correct engagement relies on matched taper surfaces.
