SK Collet vs ER Collet: Learn what makes the difference
The smaller the taper angle is, the better concentricty is obtained. Our steep 8 deg. collet seats deeper in the body of the holder, providing twice more clamping force and twice more precision than traditional 16 deg. ER collets.
SK Collets can be used for all applications, from milling to reaming, both for standard or coolant-thru applications(with coolant back-up screws)
- SK6: 0.7-6.0mm (0.027-0.236 inch) range
- SK10: 1.75-10.0mm (0.069-0.393 inch) range
- SK16: 2.75-16.0mm (0.108-0.629 inch) range
- SK25: 16.0-25.4mm (0.629-1.000 inch) range
Superior SK Coolant System
Nikken Slim Chuck features a unique high-pressure coolant collet system which allows for higher accuracy and gripping torque.
Titanium Nitrided Bearing Nut (US patent 6923451)
- More efficient than conventional ball bearing built-in nut!
- Good sliding effect due to surface hardness of HV2,200
- No damage, no friction
- No corrosion occurs internally
- Less micro vibration with collet flange contact
- Increase cutting performance and tool life durability
- More cutting rigidity
