GAETANO CAPORALI ER16 high precision collet DIN ISO 15488 (DIN6499), diameter to choice
(Incl. Tax: €32.57)
The ER16 high-precision collets, compliant with the DIN ISO 15488 (DIN 6499) standard, are designed to deliver excellent performance in industrial applications. With an average concentricity error of 0.005 mm, they offer superior precision thanks to their division into 12 sectors, ensuring excellent concentricity repeatability. The HP (High Precision) accuracy is guaranteed only when clamping tools of nominal diameter, optimizing performance. The surface, finished with a roughness of Rz 16, ensures uniform contact and increased durability. Ideal for high-precision machining, these collets are the perfect choice for milling, drilling, and other mechanical operations requiring reliability and quality.

The ERC HP ER16 high-precision collets, manufactured according to DIN ISO 15488 (DIN 6499), are designed for extremely precise clamping of cylindrical cutting tools in ER collet chucks used on CNC machining centers, milling machines, and high-speed machine tools.
These ER16 collets are ground with high manufacturing accuracy and provide a maximum run-out of ≤ 0.005 mm, enabling excellent performance in precision machining operations and in the production of components with very tight tolerances.
The collet geometry includes 12 longitudinal slots, designed to provide controlled elasticity and uniform clamping force distribution. This design ensures very high concentricity repeatability, which is essential for CNC machining operations where tool stability directly affects surface finish and tool life.
The specified precision is guaranteed only when clamping a tool with the exact nominal diameter of the collet. This condition ensures the highest radial accuracy and stability during machining.
The ERC HP ER16 collets feature a clamping diameter progression of 0.5 mm, allowing precise selection of the correct collet size relative to the tool diameter. This reduces elastic deformation and further improves tool-holder concentricity.
The surface of the collet is ground to a surface roughness of Rz 1.6, ensuring high-quality contact surfaces with the collet holder and improved clamping stability even at high spindle speeds.
Thanks to compliance with DIN ISO 15488, these ER16 collets are fully compatible with all standard ER clamping systems used on industrial machine tools.
ER16 ERC HP collets are widely used in precision machining industries such as automotive manufacturing, mold and tool making, aerospace production, and high-speed CNC machining.
Using high-precision ER16 collets reduces vibration during machining, improves workpiece surface finish, and increases the service life of cutting tools.
Due to their precision and reliability, ERC HP ER16 collets are an ideal solution for machine shops, machine tool manufacturers, and production departments requiring high machining accuracy and process stability.
