It features a 2-inch head diameter and a 1\/4-inch pilot hole, making it suited for gripping workpieces that require a stepped collet profile rather than a standard round or square bore. The internal thread measures 1.041 inches at 24 threads per inch, and the external thread measures 1.242 inches at 20 threads per inch. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in production turning or second-operation setups are the primary users of this collet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStep collets are used when a workpiece has a shoulder, flange, or diameter change that a standard collet cannot grip reliably. This collet fits conventional 5C collet closers and chucks found on engine lathes, turret lathes, and manual or CNC turning centers equipped with a 5C spindle nose. The 1-1\/8-inch head thickness provides adequate contact area for stable workholding on short-chuck or close-tolerance operations. It is a common choice in job shops and production environments where 5C tooling is the standard platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStep collet design grips workpieces with shoulders or diameter transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in repetitive production use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch head diameter with 1-1\/8-inch head thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch pilot hole (0.2500 inches) for precise workpiece location\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInternal thread 1.041 inches at 24 TPI; external thread 1.242 inches at 20 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard 5C collet closer and chuck systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit addition for machine tool setups using the standard 5C collet system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Before installing or changing collets, power down the machine and confirm the spindle has come to a complete stop. Inspect the collet seat and closer threads for wear or contamination before seating the collet. Do not exceed the workholding capacity of the collet closer, and follow the machine manufacturer guidelines for draw-tube torque and collet closer adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollet Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Step\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePilot Hole Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.041 inches - 24 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.242 inches - 20 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.11 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 230-4372\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716437377330,"sku":"230-4372","price":70.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c49a390c941a597e8f4cc29ca153b5f0.jpg?v=1788526072","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-230-4372-5c-step-collet-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
