5C Dead-Length® Emergency Collet 1/8" Pilot Hole

Forkardt Hardinge® Dead-Length Collet Assembly

Shoulders and faces can be machined to exact length, regardless of OD variations with the Forkardt Hardinge Dead-Length Collet Assembly. Parts are loaded against an adjustable solid stop which is threaded into the inner collet. The inner collet, in turn, is spring-loaded against the spindle face. There is no end movement.

The low-cost inner collet has a soft face and pilot hole to permit boring to size in the machine spindle for exacting concentricity. The inner collet is pinned to the outer collet to maintain location and original bored accuracy.

Dead-Length Collets can be used on all machines and attachments with a 5C/16C spindle and draw bar. The outer collet, solid stop, spring and nut are interchangeable between the Dead-Length Collet and the Dead-Length 2" Step Chuck. The complete assembly is a one time purchase; after that, buy the inner collet only.
