Mitee-bite 1016C Collet Wrench 16C Series 4.25 in

Product Description

The MITEE-BITE 1016C is a collet wrench designed for use with 16C collet series tooling. It features a mild steel head for durability under torque and an aluminum handle that reduces overall weight without sacrificing grip. At 4.25 inches in overall length, it is sized for close-quarters access in machine tool setups. This wrench is used by machinists and tool room technicians to tighten or release 16C collets on lathes and related spindle equipment. It weighs 0.8 pounds and ships as a single unit.

The 1016C is suited for production and job shop environments where 16C collet systems are in regular use. It provides the mechanical advantage needed to properly seat or release collets without damaging the collet nose or spindle threads. The compact 4.25-inch length makes it practical for use in confined tooling areas or at the machine without requiring additional clearance.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tool room personnel familiar with collet tooling systems. Before changing or adjusting collets, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and all power is disconnected or locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not use extension bars or cheater pipes on the handle to increase leverage, as this may damage the collet, spindle, or wrench.
