Value Collection 29802 Drawtube Collet Closer Accessory

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 29802 is a drawtube designed as a direct accessory for the 260-1774 collet closure assembly. The drawtube is a critical mechanical component in collet closer systems, transmitting the axial pulling force that draws the collet into its tapered seat to grip a workpiece. It is used in lathe and turning center applications where precise, repeatable workholding is required. Machinists and machine tool service technicians install and replace drawtube components as part of routine maintenance or when upgrading collet closer assemblies. At 7.72 pounds, this is a substantial steel-grade component built to handle the mechanical loads typical of production turning operations.

This drawtube is intended for use with the 260-1774 collet closure system. It is suited for manual or pneumatic collet closer setups mounted on engine lathes, turret lathes, and CNC turning centers. Replacement is typically needed when the drawtube shows wear at threaded interfaces or when a collet closer assembly is being rebuilt. This part ships as a single unit and is matched to the dimensional and thread specifications of the 260-1774 closure.

Key Features

• Direct replacement drawtube for the 260-1774 collet closure assembly
• Engineered to transmit axial clamping force in collet closer workholding systems
• Single-unit package quantity for exact replacement applications
• Substantial 7.72-pound construction suited to production turning load demands

Compatibility

Specified for use with the 260-1774 collet closure assembly. Verify thread pitch, outer diameter, and overall length against the existing drawtube before installation to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Drawtube replacement is performed by qualified machine tool technicians or experienced machinists. Disconnect and lock out all power to the lathe or turning center spindle drive before beginning disassembly. Verify that thread engagement on both the collet closer body and spindle interfaces meets manufacturer specifications before torquing the assembly. Do not operate the spindle until full drawtube engagement and collet closer function have been confirmed.
