Product Description

The PARLEC DA100-0500 is a Double Angle Collet in the DA100 series, sized for 1/2 inch tooling. It is designed to grip cutting tools and workholding shanks within CNC machining centers, milling machines, and similar rotating spindle equipment. The collet accepts shank diameters from 0.4844 inches minimum to 0.5000 inches maximum, with an overall length of 1.437 inches and an overall diameter of 0.769 inches. Installation and removal are performed by machinists and tool room technicians during tool changes or setup. The DA100 double angle design provides positive clamping force and accurate tool runout characteristics for precision milling and drilling operations.

This collet is suited for production machining environments where consistent tool holding and repeatable setup are required. It fits DA100-style collet chucks and holders commonly used in vertical and horizontal machining centers. Typical applications include end mill holding, drill holding, and light reaming in both job shop and high-volume production settings. The 1/2 inch capacity makes it a frequently stocked size for standard end mill shanks.
