Parlec DA180-13.5MM Double Angle Collet 13.5mm

Product Description

The PARLEC DA180-13.5MM is a double angle collet designed for use with DA180-series collet chucks in CNC machining and precision toolholding applications. It features a 13.5mm (0.5315 inch) bore diameter and an overall length of 1.639 inches, with an overall outer diameter of 1.025 inches. The double angle clamping geometry provides consistent gripping force and accurate tool centerline alignment, making it a standard choice for machinists and toolroom technicians working with rotating toolholders on mills and machining centers.

This collet is suited for production machining environments where repeatable tool runout and secure workholding are required. It fits DA180 collet chuck bodies and is used in applications involving end mills, drills, and other straight-shank cutting tools within the 13.5mm bore range. Typical installations are found in job shops and manufacturing facilities running vertical or horizontal machining centers.

Key Features

• 13.5mm (0.5315 inch) bore diameter for straight-shank tooling
• Overall length of 1.639 inches for standard DA180 chuck compatibility
• Overall outer diameter of 1.025 inches
• Double angle collet geometry for secure, centered tool grip
• DA180 collet series designation for direct chuck body matching

Compatibility

Designed for use with DA180-series collet chuck bodies. Verify chuck series compatibility before installation to ensure proper fit and clamping performance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing collets. Clean the collet bore and chuck body seating surfaces before assembly to prevent runout caused by debris. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended torque range when tightening the collet nut.
