Internal expansion rubber-flex collet body for through-hole workpieces.

Through-Hole Rubber-Flex Expanding Collet

KORRETTO through-hole rubber-flex expanding collet is the replaceable internal expansion element used for workpieces with open-through bores. It expands inside the bore to support the workpiece from the inside diameter. This page covers the expanding collet body only, not the complete through-hole expanding collet chuck assembly.

Through-Hole Rubber-Flex Expanding Collet

Product Overview

The through-hole rubber-flex expanding collet is selected when the bore is open through the workpiece and internal expansion clamping is required. It is used as a replaceable element within a matched expanding collet chuck or mandrel system.

Selection should confirm the expansion range, bore tolerance, maximum length, workpiece material, support length and whether the application requires the collet body only or the complete chuck assembly.

FAQ

What is a through-hole rubber-flex expanding collet?

It is a replaceable internal expansion rubber-flex element used for workpieces with open-through bores.

Is this a complete chuck?

No. This page covers the expanding collet body. The complete through-hole expanding chuck assembly is handled separately.

How is this different from the blind-hole version?

This version is for open-through bores. The blind-hole version is for blind-hole or semi-through-hole workpieces.

What should be checked before selection?

Check bore diameter, expansion range, tolerance, maximum length, support length and matching chuck or actuator structure.

Can this be used for outside machining?

Yes. Internal expansion clamping can leave the outside surface available for machining.

What information should I provide?

Provide the workpiece drawing, bore size, tolerance, material, support length, maximum length and whether the complete chuck assembly is required.
