With a collet size of 0.2559 inches (6.50 mm) and a minimum collet capacity of 0.1772 inches (4.5 mm), this collet provides a firm, concentric grip on straight-shank taps across a range of smaller tap sizes. The rubber construction absorbs minor misalignment and reduces tap breakage in both through-hole and blind-hole tapping applications. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this collet in compatible tapping heads or tap holders as part of a production or maintenance threading setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap collet is suited for use in light-duty to medium-duty tapping operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is commonly installed in machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where consistent tap alignment and grip retention are required. The 0.2559-inch size targets metric M6.5 and equivalent inch-range taps. No through-coolant feature is present on this collet, making it appropriate for dry or flood-coolant setups where internal coolant delivery is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCollet size of 0.2559 inches (6.50 mm) for precise tap shank engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum collet capacity of 0.1772 inches (4.5 mm) accommodates smaller tap shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRubber collet construction reduces vibration and helps prevent tap breakage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo through-coolant port — compatible with dry or external flood-coolant tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-tension tap design for use in standard tapping head configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually — quantity of one per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or spare tap collet for compatible tapping heads and tap holders that accept rubber collets in the 0.2559-inch (6.50 mm) size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and de-energize the tapping machine before changing collets. Ensure the collet bore and tapping head body are clean and free of chips or debris before seating the collet.
