Vortex 5C Metric Lathe collet - Round Bore - 6mm

The Vortex 5C Round Bore Lathe Collet, 6mm, is a soft collet designed to be bored to a precise size, depth, taper, or shape to suit your component. Used with a 5C lathe collet chuck, it delivers concentric gripping and clean bore quality for custom parts. With a typical runout of 13–15 microns, this collet helps you achieve repeatable accuracy in grinding, turning, and finishing operations.

Pins hold the collet open during the boring process, allowing you to establish the exact bore before clamping. Once bored, these collets can be re-bored multiple times to accommodate larger parts, extending tool life and reducing the need for new collets. Keep the pins for repeated use across jobs to save setup time.

• Ultra-precise bore accuracy (13–15 µm runout): Ensures concentric gripping and consistent finishes across multiple passes, reducing scrap and rework.
• Re-borable and reusable design: Soft collet that can be bored to your required size and re-bored as needs change, maximizing longevity and value.
• Seamless 5C lathe compatibility: Round bore 6mm format that integrates with standard 5C collet chucks for quick setups and reliable holding on demanding jobs.

This collet helps you tailor bore dimensions on demand, improves machining workflow, and delivers dependable, repeatable results in 5C lathe applications—from prototype runs to production lots—without sacrificing precision or speed.
