Parlec ERS16-0236 ER16 Collet 6 Mm

Product Description

The PARLEC ERS16-0236 is an ER16 series collet designed for use in CNC machining centers, milling machines, and toolholding systems that accept the ER16 collet standard. This collet accommodates a 6 mm shank diameter tool, with an overall length of 1.082 inches and an overall diameter of 0.669 inches. It is engineered to provide consistent clamping force at up to 1800 psi, ensuring accurate tool retention during cutting operations. Machinists and tool crib technicians working in precision machining environments rely on ER-series collets for their wide clamping range and broad compatibility across spindles and toolholding chucks.

This collet is suited for use in light to medium-duty milling, drilling, and tapping applications where ER16 collet chucks are specified. Its compact size makes it a common choice in high-speed spindle work, benchtop CNC setups, and precision tool rooms. The 6 mm bore size is a standard metric dimension frequently called for when running metric end mills, drills, and reamers in ER16-compatible holders.

Key Features

• ER16 collet series for use with standard ER16 collet chucks and holders
• 6 mm bore accommodates metric shank tooling
• 1.082 inches overall length fits within standard ER16 nut and chuck geometry
• 0.669 inches overall diameter
• Rated clamping pressure of 1800 psi for secure tool retention
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds, minimizing added mass in high-speed applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling component for use in ER16 collet chucks and toolholding systems accepting the ER16 collet series.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the spindle or collet chuck is fully de-energized and at rest before installing or removing collets. Clean the collet taper and chuck bore before seating the collet to prevent runout caused by debris. Use a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate ER16 collet nut spanner when tightening to avoid over-clamping or damage to the collet body.
