Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a TG Tap Collet? ▼

TG Tap Collets are heavy-duty tool-holding collets designed specifically for tapping operations in TG (Tremendous Grip) collet systems. They feature a square-drive bore to securely hold taps and prevent slippage during threading. Learn more at pactoolsusa.com.

2. How do TG Tap Collets differ from ER Tap Collets? ▼

TG Tap Collets offer a stronger grip and are better suited for larger tap sizes and higher torque demands. While ER collets prioritize precision, TG collets are ideal for heavy tapping operations and aggressive thread cutting. Compare systems at pactoolsusa.com.

3. What kind of machines and holders are TG Tap Collets used with? ▼

They are used in CNC machining centers and turret lathes that support TG collet chucks. You’ll need a TG holder that matches the collet series (e.g., TG100, TG75) for correct fit. Check compatibility at pactoolsusa.com.

4. What are the benefits of using TG Tap Collets? ▼

TG Tap Collets prevent tap pull-out, improve thread quality, and allow efficient torque transmission. They're preferred in high-volume production settings where consistent thread depth and durability are critical. Explore benefits at pactoolsusa.com.

5. How do I maintain TG Tap Collets for long-term use? ▼

Clean the square drive and bore before each use, avoid overtightening, and periodically inspect for wear. Light oiling prevents rust, and storing them in protective trays helps preserve accuracy. See care instructions at pactoolsusa.com.

6. Can TG Tap Collets be used with through-coolant taps? ▼

Some TG collets support through-coolant taps if designed with internal coolant pathways, but standard versions are typically not sealed. Confirm coolant compatibility at pactoolsusa.com.
