5C Collet Chucks



Global Tooling Solutions has added Adjustable to the Gator line. " are designed for all 5C collets and are a great addition to any shop performing facing, turning, milling and boring operations," said a company spokesperson. These chucks are typically used on grinding machines and lathes.

Gator are produced with a two-pinion design, and high-quality forged steel bodies providing high rigidity and accurate clamping of a workpiece or a cutting tool. This simple key operated process allows for quick 5C collet changeover times. Scrolls, pinions and chuck bodies are fully hardened and ground for high accuracy and long life. All chucks are precisely balanced allowing these chucks to be run up to 6,000 RPM.

Gator are designed to work with fully finished adapter plates. Micro adjustable screws that engage with these special adapter plates provide fine adjustment capabilities and allow the user to `zero in' the accuracy of the chuck, providing 0.0004-inch T.I.R. repeatability. Adapter plates covering the most popular A & D spindle types are available from stock.

Gator Chucks are produced in Global Tooling Solutions' ISO & CE certified factory.
