Parlec DA180-17.5MM Double Angle Collet 17.5mm

Product Description

The PARLEC DA180-17.5MM is a double angle collet designed for use in DA180 collet chucks on CNC machining centers, milling machines, and similar rotating toolholding equipment. This collet accepts a 17.5mm (0.689 inch) tool shank diameter and provides concentric clamping through a dual-angle seating geometry that distributes grip force evenly along the collet body. With an overall length of 1.639 inches and an outer diameter of 1.025 inches, it is dimensioned for direct fitment into compatible DA180 chuck bodies. Installation and tool changes are performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians.

This collet is suited for production machining environments where consistent runout control and repeatable toolsetting are required. It is appropriate for use with end mills, drills, reamers, and other straight-shank cutting tools sized to 17.5mm. The DA180 collet series is commonly found in both job shop and high-volume production settings using vertical and horizontal machining centers. Each collet is sold individually.

Key Features

• Double angle collet geometry for even grip force distribution along the clamping surface
• 17.5mm (0.689 inch) bore diameter for straight-shank tooling
• Overall length of 1.639 inches for proper seating in DA180 chuck bodies
• Outer diameter of 1.025 inches for DA180 series chuck compatibility
• Compact, single-piece collet body suited for production toolholding applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with DA180 series collet chucks that accept double angle collets with a 1.025 inch outer diameter. Verify chuck series and collet seat geometry before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is powered down and the chuck is secured before inserting or removing collets. Clean the collet seat and chuck bore of chips, coolant, and debris before seating the collet to maintain concentricity and prevent premature wear. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended clamping torque for the DA180 chuck nut.
