Vortex 5C Metric Lathe collet - Round Bore - 23mm

The Vortex 5C Metric Lathe Collet – Round Bore – 23mm is a soft, bore-ready collet designed for use with a 5C lathe collet chuck. It lets you tailor the grip to your exact component by boring the collet to a precise size, depth, taper, or shape, ensuring a snug, repeatable hold for your workpiece.

With pins that keep the collet open during the boring process, this collet can be bored to your exact specification and re-bored multiple times to accommodate larger parts. Remember to keep the pins for repeated use, so you can reuse the same collet as your needs evolve.

• Customizable bore for a precise fit: Soft 5C boring collets are designed to be machined to your exact size, depth, taper, or shape, giving you a custom grip that reduces part slippage and enhances accuracy.
• Low runout for consistent results: Achieves 13–15 micron runout, helping ensure repeatable alignment and reliable finishes across multiple parts and operations.
• Open-bore design with reusable pins: Pins hold the collet open during boring, enabling clean setups and easy re-use for repeated boring cycles without losing accuracy.

This solution is ideal for shops that need flexibility and precision in 23mm round-bore components. By enabling on-demand bore customization and preserving accuracy through repeated re-borings, the Vortex 5C boring collet helps streamline setups, reduce rework, and deliver reliable, repeatable results.
