This collet features a 2-inch head diameter and a 1.5-inch head length, with a concentricity rating of 0.0020 inches TIR for consistent, repeatable runout performance. It accepts a grip range from 0.75 inches up to 1.9375 inches, making it suitable for a broad range of round and workpiece diameters. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this collet in 5C-compatible spindles and fixtures on manual or CNC lathes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis expanding collet is intended for precision workholding in machine shop environments, including production turning, grinding, and secondary operations. The expanding design grips from the inside of a bore or recess, allowing secure holding of tubular or pre-bored workpieces. It is appropriate for both job-shop and production-floor use where 5C spindle compatibility is standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExpanding collet design grips internal bores and recesses for secure workholding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability under repeated clamping cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.0020-inch TIR concentricity for consistent runout performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrip range from 0.75 inches to 1.9375 inches accommodates varied workpiece sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInternal thread size 1.041 in-24 and external thread size 1.242 in-20 for standard 5C draw tube engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch head diameter with 1.5-inch head length fits standard 5C spindle noses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct fitment for standard 5C collet-ready lathes, grinding machines, and workholding fixtures that accept 5C expanding collets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with 5C collet systems. Power down and de-energize the spindle drive fully before inserting or removing the collet. Ensure the spindle bore and collet taper are clean and free of chips or debris before seating. Do not force the collet into the spindle; hand-thread the draw tube to proper engagement before applying closing force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollet Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Expanding\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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConcentricity (TIR)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.041 in-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.242 in-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Grip\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Grip\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.9375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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: 230-4426\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698436735282,"sku":"230-4426","price":142.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9e5c90a2f138abf3563576f2abc87312.jpg?v=1788362821","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-230-4426-5c-expanding-collet-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
