It accepts hand tap shanks with a collet size of 0.48 inches and a square drive size of 0.36 inches, providing a secure grip on the tap during threading operations. The double angle design delivers consistent radial accuracy, with a total indicator runout (TIR) of 0.001 inches (0.03 mm), helping maintain thread quality and extend tap life. This collet is intended for hand tap applications and does not support through-coolant or tension-compression float.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collet is suited for manual and machine tapping operations in metalworking and machining environments, including job shops, tool rooms, and production floors. It fits into compatible Series L tap holders used on vertical machining centers, drill presses, and tapping machines. The 0.48-inch collet size is matched to 5\/8-inch hand tap shanks, making it a direct-fit component for that tap size range. Machinists and toolroom technicians performing threading work on steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble angle collet design for secure tap retention and precise radial alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCollet size of 0.48 inches accommodates 5\/8-inch hand tap shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare drive size of 0.36 inches for positive torque transfer to the tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTIR of 0.001 inches (0.03 mm) supports accurate thread production\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeries L designation for compatibility with matching L-series tap holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand tap configuration — not rated for tension-compression or through-coolant use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Series L tap holders that accept double angle collets.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing collets. Seat the collet fully into the holder before tightening the collet nut to the holder manufacturer's specified procedure. Inspect the collet bore and seating surfaces for chips or debris prior to assembly, as contamination will degrade TIR performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollet Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollet Series\u003c\/strong\u003e: L\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.48 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.36 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTIR\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 inches (0.03 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand Tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThrough Coolant\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTension Tap\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.33 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1016658\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731057213746,"sku":"1016658","price":90.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/059cd7fd271718a9d37cdc72d6723fb8.jpg?v=1788726373","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1016658-double-angle-tap-collet-series-l","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
