It provides a projection of 4.04 inches and a nose diameter of 2.31 inches, making it suitable for operations where reach and clearance are critical. The chuck supports through-coolant delivery, directing fluid directly to the cutting zone for improved tool life and chip evacuation. It accepts straight shank tap holders and is installed by machinists and toolroom technicians working in production machining environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis chuck is used in vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers running tapping cycles that require tension-compression float to compensate for minor feed-rate mismatches. The tap capacity ranges from M3.5 to M36 metric or number 6 to 1-5\/8 inch taps, and pipe tap capacity runs from 1\/16 inch to 1-1\/4 inch. It is well suited to production shops running mixed tap sizes on a single spindle setup, reducing the need for frequent chuck changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCAT50 taper shank for direct spindle mounting on standard CAT50 machining centers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTension-compression float: 0.56 inches tension and 0.00 to 0.25 inches compression to protect taps from feed-rate variation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThrough-coolant capability for improved chip flushing and tap lubrication at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide tap capacity range: M3.5 to M36 metric, number 6 to 1-5\/8 inch, and 1\/16 to 1-1\/4 inch pipe taps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.04-inch projection suits deep-pocket and obstructed-bore tapping setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-quick-change design provides a solid, repeatable connection to the tap holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade tapping chuck for CAT50 spindle machining centers requiring tension-compression tapping capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before mounting, clean the spindle taper and chuck shank thoroughly to prevent runout from contamination. Torque the retention knob to the machining center manufacturer specifications and verify through-coolant passages are clear before starting a cycle. Confirm spindle RPM and feed rate are programmed within the tap manufacturer recommendations before running the first part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tension and Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: CAT50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModular Side Connection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Capacity (Metric)\u003c\/strong\u003e: M3.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Tap Capacity (Metric)\u003c\/strong\u003e: M36\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Capacity (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: number 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Tap Capacity (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Pipe Tap Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pipe Tap Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProjection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.04 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTension Float\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompression Float\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00 to 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThrough Coolant\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick-Change\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: PARLEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C50-77TA4C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARLEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52110679834930,"sku":"C50-77TA4C","price":791.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/61469728f3cacc4dd28418d857cf5d55.jpg?v=1790076447","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parlec-c50-77ta4c-tapping-chuck-cat50-tension-compression","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
