Collet Chuck supports large bar stock.
Full BoreÃ-® mechanical-grip, air-release, front-mounted collet chuck eliminates conventional draw tube and external actuator. Spring force holds workpiece while it is being machined, and part remains clamped even if air pressure is lost. Adjustable concentricity and dead-length positioning allow hex, round, and square bar feeding. Clamping force is constant regardless of spindle speed. Pads...

Collet Closer clamps down on machining centers.
High-pressure hydraulic Tri-Grip 5C collet is suitable for workholding applications in vertical and horizontal machining centers. It operates 3 collets simultaneously, with each on 2-1/2 in. center. Collet and part do not move, maintaining fixed height from part to part. It automatically locates collet locking screw access on top of collet block, which allows infinite collet or part orientation....
