Value Collection 230-4465 5C Collet Fixture Mount Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 230-4465 is a 5C collet fixture mount designed for workholding applications on lathes, grinders, and machining centers that use the 5C collet standard. The mount features a 3 inch head length and a 3 inch face diameter, machined from steel for rigidity and durability under cutting loads. With a total indicator runout (TIR) of 0.00197 inch, it delivers the concentricity required for precision turning and grinding work. Machinists and toolroom technicians rely on this type of fixture mount to hold 5C collets securely during high-repeatability operations.

This fixture mount is suited for use in machine shops, production environments, and toolrooms where 5C collet tooling is standard. It is appropriate for both manual lathe setups and fixture-plate workholding configurations. The steel construction handles the clamping forces and vibration typical of turning and light milling applications. It is installed and serviced by machinists, toolmakers, and CNC setup technicians.

Key Features

• 5C collet series compatibility for broad workholding versatility
• 3 inch head length provides adequate clearance and reach for most setup configurations
• 3 inch face diameter suits standard fixture plate and chuck mounting arrangements
• 0.00197 inch TIR for precision concentricity in turning and grinding operations
• Steel construction resists deflection and wear under production cutting loads

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit fixture mount for 5C collet series workholding systems used in standard lathe and machining center setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolmaker. Ensure the spindle or fixture plate is fully stopped and locked before mounting or removing the collet fixture. Mating surfaces should be clean and free of chips or burburrs prior to seating the mount. Verify TIR with a dial indicator after installation to confirm concentricity before beginning any cutting operation.
