Parlec DA100-0218 Double Angle Collet DA100 7/32 in

Product Description

The PARLEC DA100-0218 is a double angle collet designed for use in DA100-series collet chucks on CNC machining centers, milling machines, and high-speed drilling and tapping equipment. It accepts tool shanks with a maximum capacity of 0.2188 inches (7/32 inch nominal) and a minimum capacity of 0.2031 inches. The overall length is 1.437 inches and the overall diameter measures 0.769 inches. This collet is installed by machinists and tooling technicians to provide secure, concentric workholding or tool retention during precision metal cutting operations.

This collet is suited for production and job-shop environments where DA100-series toolholding systems are in use. Typical applications include high-speed milling, drilling, reaming, and tapping with shank tooling in the 7/32 inch size range. It is commonly found in light to medium-duty machining operations across aerospace, automotive, and general metalworking shops that rely on the DA100 collet standard for consistent tool runout and repeatable clamping force.

Key Features

• DA100 collet series for direct compatibility with DA100-style collet chucks
• 7/32 inch nominal size with a clamping range of 0.2031 to 0.2188 inches
• Overall length of 1.437 inches for proper chuck seating and tool projection
• Overall diameter of 0.769 inches machined to DA100 taper specifications
• Double angle design provides strong clamping force and accurate tool concentricity

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or spare for DA100-series collet chucks accepting 7/32 inch shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing collets. Clean the collet chuck bore and collet taper surfaces before seating to prevent runout caused by chips or debris. Use the appropriate DA100 collet wrench and nut torque procedure per the chuck manufacturer's guidelines - do not overtighten by impact methods.
