Parlec DA100-8MM Double Angle Collet 8mm DA100

Product Description

The PARLEC DA100-8MM is a double angle collet in the DA100 series, designed for use in DA-style collet chucks on milling machines, CNC machining centers, and similar rotary toolholding setups. This collet accepts an 8 mm (0.315 inch) bore diameter and has an overall length of 1.437 inches. The outer diameter measures 0.769 inches. It provides concentric tool clamping through a double angle contact geometry, which distributes clamping force evenly around the tool shank. Licensed machinists and CNC setup technicians are the typical installers.

The DA100-8MM is suited for production and job-shop environments requiring accurate, repeatable toolholding in light to medium milling operations. The DA100 collet series is a widely used standard in manual and CNC milling applications where quick tool changes and consistent runout performance are required. This collet accommodates cutting tools or round-shank tooling with an 8 mm shank diameter.

Key Features

• 8 mm (0.315 inch) bore diameter for metric shank tooling
• DA100 collet series with double angle contact geometry for even clamping force
• Overall length of 1.437 inches (36.50 mm) for standard DA100 chuck compatibility
• Outer diameter of 0.769 inches for proper chuck seating
• Compact, lightweight construction at 0.5 pounds

Compatibility

Designed for use with DA100 series collet chucks used in milling and CNC machining applications requiring 8 mm shank toolholding.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup personnel. The spindle or collet chuck must be fully de-energized and brought to a complete stop before changing collets. The collet should be seated fully and evenly in the chuck before tightening the clamping nut; uneven seating can cause runout and premature collet wear. Inspect the collet bore and chuck taper for chips or debris before each use.
