The collet accepts a 5mm tool shank and features a 7\/16-20 drawbar thread for positive retention during cutting operations. Total indicator runout (TIR) is rated at 0.0007 inches, providing the concentricity needed for accurate milling, drilling, and light boring work. This collet is installed and serviced by machinists and tool room technicians in job shop and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eR8 collets are designed for Bridgeport-style vertical knee mills and compatible machines that use the R8 spindle taper. This 5mm size is particularly useful when holding metric end mills, drills, and other small-diameter cutting tools. The steel construction provides durability under repeated tightening and release cycles in standard shop conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5mm collet bore accepts metric shank tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eR8 taper profile fits standard vertical knee mill spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7\/16-20 drawbar thread for secure spindle retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0007 inch TIR for accurate tool concentricity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability and repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental collet for vertical milling machines equipped with an R8 spindle taper and a 7\/16-20 drawbar thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eR8 collets are installed by machinists and tool room personnel.
