It delivers a fixed, non-compensating connection between the spindle and tap, making it the right choice when the machine control handles synchronization between feed rate and spindle speed. The chuck accepts taps from M5 up to M33 in metric sizing, with a projection of 3.75 inches from the gauge line to the nose. The quick-change feature allows tap holders to be swapped without removing the chuck body from the spindle, reducing changeover time in production environments. This tool is installed by machinists and tooling technicians in job shop and production machining settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C50-77TR4 suits rigid tapping operations on vertical and horizontal machining centers equipped with CAT50 spindles. It is used in applications requiring repeatable tap positioning across multiple workpieces, including threaded hole production in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The chuck accommodates straight pipe taps from 1\/16 inch to 1-1\/4 inch NPT in addition to standard machine taps, expanding its utility across plumbing fixture, manifold, and fluid-system component machining. The nose diameter of 2.31 inches provides clearance in most standard fixturing arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRigid tapping style for use with synchronous CNC tapping cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCAT50 taper shank interface for direct spindle mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMetric tap capacity from M5 to M33; inch capacity from No. 6 to 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick-change design allows tap holder swaps without removing the chuck from the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePipe tap capacity from 1\/16 inch to 1-1\/4 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProjection of 3.75 inches for reach into deep setups or fixture-obstructed workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with CAT50 taper spindle machining centers that support rigid tapping cycles.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the chuck. Verify the CAT50 taper and retention knob thread specification match the machine spindle before seating the tool. Torque the drawbar or retention stud according to the machine tool builder specifications, not the chuck manufacturer, as drawbar clamping requirements vary by machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapping Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rigid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: CAT50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Capacity (Metric)\u003c\/strong\u003e: M5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Tap Capacity (Metric)\u003c\/strong\u003e: M33\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Capacity (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 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: 3.75 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\u003eQuick-Change\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThrough Coolant\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: C50-77TR4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARLEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52013948404018,"sku":"C50-77TR4","price":475.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8cfb77da1f141d8901146015ec166c50.jpg?v=1790006581","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parlec-c50-77tr4-rigid-tapping-chuck-cat50-taper-shank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
