The CENTAUR RDF - 097 is a Series 75 AF collet designed for use in collet chucks and toolholding systems that require precise, repeatable workpiece or tool clamping. This collet accepts shank diameters from 9/64 inch (minimum) to 5/32 inch (0.1563 inches maximum), making it suited for small-diameter work. The overall diameter measures 1.13 inches and the overall length is 2.02 inches. It is installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC setup personnel working with lathes, mills, and other machine tools that accept Series 75 AF collet systems.
This collet is used in machining operations where small-diameter stock or tooling must be held with accuracy and concentricity. Typical applications include light turning, drilling, and grinding operations on manual and CNC machine tools. The Series 75 AF designation indicates a specific collet series and nose geometry, so the collet must be matched to a compatible Series 75 AF collet chuck or closer system. It is appropriate for both production shop and toolroom use where consistent clamping across small-diameter ranges is required.
Designed for use with Series 75 AF collet chucks and closing systems that accept this collet series and nose geometry. Confirm chuck series compatibility before installation.
Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with collet chuck systems. Before installing or removing any collet, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the chuck is de-energized or mechanically locked per the machine tool manufacturer's procedures. Inspect the collet bore and chuck taper for chips, burrs, or wear before seating. Do not exceed the stated capacity range, as over-clamping outside the rated diameter span can damage both the collet and the workpiece.
