Techniks 23116 ER16 Collet 22 Mm

Product Description

The TECHNIKS 23116 is an ER16 series collet sized at 22 mm, designed for use in ER16-compatible collet chucks on CNC machining centers, milling machines, and manual mills. Collets of this type grip cutting tools and workholding shanks by compressing radially as the chuck nut is tightened, providing concentric tool holding across a range of shank diameters. The ER16 collet series is one of the most widely used standards in precision machining, and this 22 mm size accommodates larger-shank tooling within that range. Machinists and CNC setup technicians install this collet as part of routine tooling changes or when expanding their collet chuck capacity.

This collet is suited for light- to medium-duty machining operations where ER16 chuck compatibility is required. Typical applications include drilling, reaming, end milling, and tapping in both production and job-shop environments. The 22 mm collet size fits within the upper range of the ER16 series and is selected when the tooling shank matches that nominal diameter. It is appropriate for use in benchtop and full-size vertical machining centers equipped with ER16 collet chucks.

Key Features

• ER16 collet series for use with ER16-compatible collet chucks
• 22 mm collet size accommodates larger-shank tooling within the ER16 range
• Radial compression design provides concentric tool grip when chuck nut is torqued
• Compact ER16 form factor suits a wide range of machine spindle configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental collet for use with ER16-series collet chucks in CNC and manual milling, drilling, and tapping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC technicians. Before changing collets, power down and lock out the machine spindle per standard LOTO procedures. Insert the collet into the chuck body before threading on the chuck nut, and tighten the nut using the appropriate ER16 spanner wrenches to the chuck manufacturer's specified procedure. Do not hammer the collet into the chuck body or overtighten the nut without proper tooling.
