Parlec 100PG-0296 TG100 PG100 Standard Collet 0.2969 in

Product Description

The PARLEC 100PG-0296 is a standard single angle collet designed for TG100 and PG100 collet chucks used in CNC machining and toolholding applications. It accepts a 0.2969 inch (19/64 inch) tool shank with a maximum total indicated runout (TIR) of 0.0005 inches, making it suitable for precision milling, drilling, and reaming operations. The body diameter measures 1.379 inches and overall length is 2.375 inches. Machinists and toolroom technicians specify this collet when tight concentricity tolerances are required at the spindle.

This collet is used in TG100 and PG100 collet chuck systems commonly found on vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers, and toolroom mills in both production and job-shop environments. The TG100 and PG100 series are widely adopted in industrial machining for their balance of gripping force and runout performance. This size accommodates 19/64 inch round shank tooling including end mills, drill bits, and reamers ground to that shank diameter.

Compatibility

Designed for use with TG100 and PG100 series collet chucks. Accepts 0.2969 inch (19/64 inch) round shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the spindle is powered down and the machine is in a safe lockout state before changing collets. Clean the collet, chuck bore, and nut seating surfaces before assembly to maintain the rated TIR. Tighten the collet nut to the chuck manufacturer's specified procedure using the appropriate spanner wrench - do not use pipe wrenches or improvised tools that may damage the nut or collet.
