Frequently Asked Questions

1. What are 16C Collets? ▼

16C Collets are industrial-grade workholding collets used primarily in CNC lathes and turning centers. They offer higher clamping capacity and rigidity than 5C collets, making them ideal for heavy-duty and high-precision machining. Learn more at pactoolsusa.com.

2. How are 16C collets different from 5C collets? ▼

16C Collets have a larger body diameter (1.750") and longer nose, allowing for greater holding capacity—up to 1-5/8" for round stock. They also typically use a larger drawtube for more powerful clamping, making them better suited for high-volume production. Compare sizes at pactoolsusa.com.

3. What types of machines use 16C collets? ▼

16C collets are used in high-performance CNC lathes, collet block fixtures, and bar-fed turning centers. They are favored in applications requiring quick part changeover and precise concentricity. Check compatibility at pactoolsusa.com.

4. What shapes and sizes do 16C collets support? ▼

16C collets are available in round, hex, and square configurations. They typically support up to 1-5/8" round, 1-3/16" hex, and 1-1/8" square stock. Emergency (machinable) collets are also available for custom shapes. View full options at pactoolsusa.com.

5. What are emergency 16C collets? ▼

Emergency 16C collets are soft collets made from steel or brass that can be bored to custom shapes for non-standard workpieces. These are perfect for short runs or odd profiles. See custom solutions at pactoolsusa.com.

6. What are the benefits of using 16C collets? ▼

16C collets offer higher clamping force, better rigidity, and support for larger parts compared to smaller collet types. They ensure excellent part concentricity and are well-suited for production runs. Discover benefits at pactoolsusa.com.
