Parlec DA100-0156 Double Angle Collet DA100 5/32 in

Product Description

The PARLEC DA100-0156 is a Double Angle collet in the DA100 series, designed to hold round shank tooling in CNC machining centers, milling machines, and drilling applications. It accepts tool shanks from 0.1406 inches up to 0.1562 inches in diameter, covering a nominal 5/32-inch bore size. With an overall length of 1.437 inches and an overall diameter of 0.769 inches, this collet fits directly into compatible DA100-style collet chucks. Machinists and CNC setup technicians are the primary users of this component.

This collet is suited for light-duty milling, drilling, and reaming operations in both production and job-shop environments. The DA100 series is a widely used double angle collet standard found in vertical machining centers and milling fixtures. It performs best when used with tools at or near the 0.1562-inch maximum capacity for optimal gripping force and runout control. Tool changes are quick and repeatable, making this collet a practical choice for high-turnover setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machining technicians during tooling setup or collet replacement. Before installing or removing any collet, ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out per shop safety procedures. Use the appropriate collet wrench or chuck spanner rated for the DA100 system - do not use pipe wrenches or improvised tools that can damage the collet or chuck body. Inspect the collet bore and chuck taper for chips or debris before seating the collet.
