Building hardinge 5c collet collection. Lmk what you have.
That shouldn't occur if you are using the correct size collets. A collet has a very small holding range.I keep reading about hardinge superiority due to some pre sprung enhancement. do you find the shars collets scratch the part being held when being removing?
i bought several of these: https://allindustrial.com/pratt-bur...82558307670047&utm_content=Shopping Catch All. Supposedly made in England. They do seem to work well. I have gotten burned on used hardinge 5c on ebay. New Hardinge collets I have are the best but expensive and difficult to justify for me.Building hardinge 5c collet collection. Lmk what you have.
I checked eBay a while back For Harding’s collets. The used ones I found looked well used for the price.
I ended up buying a Shars set to enhance the Harding’s 5C collets I already acquired.
I’m happy with the Shars so far!
So did II bought a set of 5C from Accusize. Very impressed with the quality.
Worth checking out.
