Techniks 18851-06 Single Angle Collet Slimfit 6 6mm

Product Description

The TECHNIKS 18851-06 is a single angle collet in the SlimFIT 6 series, designed for precision toolholding in CNC machining applications. It accepts a 6mm collet size and delivers a total indicator runout (TIR) of 0.0001 inches, making it suitable for close-tolerance work where concentricity is critical. The body diameter measures 0.394 inches with an overall length of 1.417 inches. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this collet into compatible SlimFIT 6 collet chucks to securely grip cutting tools during milling, drilling, or boring operations.

This collet is intended for use in machining centers and CNC milling setups where the SlimFIT 6 collet system is employed. Its compact body diameter and controlled TIR make it a practical choice for high-speed applications and tight-clearance work envelopes. It is suited for production environments as well as job shop settings where tool change frequency and repeatability are priorities for the machine operator or toolroom staff.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before installing or removing collets, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state per applicable shop safety procedures. Use the correct collet wrench and chuck nut specified for the SlimFIT 6 system - do not substitute tools that could damage the collet taper or chuck bore. Inspect the collet and chuck bore for chips or debris before seating the collet to maintain the rated TIR.
