Product details
## Opening
Your drawing defines the part. We machine it. Before shipment, every collet is verified against your critical dimensions. No exceptions.
This is a 46-type extended collet with a hex bore, designed for auto lathe spindles. It is made to your drawing, not from stock approximations. We hold concentricity and bore geometry to your print.
- Tolerance: ±0.005 mm on bore hex flats
- Lead time: 7–12 days for prototypes, 15–20 days for production
- No MOQ: order one piece or one thousand
- Material: 20CrMnTi or 8620, case-hardened to 58–62 HRC
## Specifications
We run this part on CNC Swiss-type and sliding-head auto lathes. The extended nose length and hex bore require stable machining and controlled heat treatment.

| Country of origin | Made in China, Dongguan factory |

We grind the bore after heat treatment. This removes distortion and holds the hex geometry. The extended nose is machined in one setup where possible to keep concentricity.
## Three reasons buyers send us their drawings
1. Batch-traceable quality.
Each batch gets a unique heat number and work order. Material certs are stored for 10 years. If a problem appears in your line, we trace it back to the exact melt and machining shift.
2. Inspection report per batch.
You receive a dimensional report for every batch, not just a sample. The report lists bore size, hex flat-to-flat, concentricity, and hardness. We use a CMM and a Rockwell tester. Data is real, not estimated.
3. One factory for CNC, stamping, springs, and heat sinks.
Your collet chuck is not the only part you need. We also run CNC machining, metal stamping, spring coiling, and heat sink fabrication under one roof. Send us the full assembly drawing. We coordinate the vendors, you get one invoice.
## Where these parts are used
This collet is for auto lathes that machine small precision components. Typical applications:
- Watch and clock parts: pinions, arbors, balance staffs. The hex bore grips flats without marking.
- Medical device components: bone screws, drill bits, small implants. Tight concentricity keeps runout low.
- Electronic connector pins: hex-shaped pins for high-density connectors. Extended nose reaches deep into the spindle.
- Fastener production: hex socket set screws and cap screws. The collet holds the hex blank securely.
- Automotive fuel injector parts: needle valves and armatures. Batch consistency matters for high-volume lines.
The 46-type taper fits standard auto lathe spindles. The extended nose gives extra clearance for long workpieces. The hex bore prevents rotation of hex stock during machining.
## Questions buyers ask before ordering
Q: What is your MOQ?
A: No MOQ. We make one piece for prototype validation or 10,000 pieces for production. Tooling is standard for 46-type collets, so setup cost is low.
Q: How do you guarantee tolerance and quality?
A: We machine to your drawing, then grind the bore after heat treatment. Every part is checked. You get a CMM report per batch. If a dimension is out, we rework or scrap at our cost.
Q: What is the lead time for a custom hex bore collet?
A: Prototype in 7–12 days after drawing approval. Production in 15–20 days. For urgent orders, we can split the batch and ship the first 20% in 5 days.
Q: Can you provide material certificates?
A: Yes. We supply EN 10204 3.1 material certs for 20CrMnTi, 8620, or your specified grade. Heat treatment reports are included with each batch.
