The overall length is 1.639 inches and the overall diameter measures 1.025 inches. This collet is installed by machinists and tool room technicians in CNC and manual milling setups where repeatable tool holding accuracy is required.

The DA180-0453 is suited for use in machining centers and milling machines that accept DA180-style collet chucks. It is a common choice in production shops and job shops handling end mills, drills, and other round-shank cutting tools in the 29/64 inch size range. Its double angle design provides secure clamping force distribution across the collet body for consistent tool runout performance during metal cutting operations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool room personnel. Always de-energize and lock out the machine spindle before changing collets. Inspect the collet chuck bore and collet seating surfaces for debris or wear before installation. Use the appropriate collet wrench and nut torque procedure specified by the chuck manufacturer - do not overtighten, as this can distort the collet and reduce clamping accuracy.
