Parlec DA180-5MM Double Angle Collet DA180 5mm

Product Description

The PARLEC DA180-5MM is a double angle collet built for the DA180 collet series, designed to hold tooling at a precise bore size of 5 mm (0.1969 inches). With an overall length of 1.639 inches (41.63 mm) and an overall diameter of 1.025 inches, this collet delivers consistent gripping force and accurate tool positioning in milling and drilling operations. It is installed by machinists and CNC setup technicians on machining centers that accept DA180-series collet chucks. The compact, precision-ground design keeps runout low, which is critical when working with small-diameter end mills, drills, or reamers in production and job-shop environments.

This collet is suited for use in machining centers, vertical mills, and drill presses equipped with DA180 collet chucks. Typical applications include high-speed drilling, light milling, and reaming operations where a secure, repeatable tool grip is required. The 5 mm bore accommodates standard metric cutting tools and is a common size in both general-purpose and precision machining setups across metalworking and manufacturing facilities.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before installing or removing any collet. Use the appropriate collet wrench and chuck nut for the DA180 series to achieve proper seating and clamping. Inspect the collet bore and chuck taper for debris or wear before assembly to maintain tool concentricity.
