Collets are precision, work-holding chucks consisting of a slotted socket that, when tightened, automatically centers a finished round or specialized stock. Collets are movable metal parts that are fitted in a chunk to tightly hold a tool or a workpiece. Collets are fitted on the lathe machine. A workpiece is tightly placed in a collet and then the lathe machine is switched on to perform the operation on the workpiece. The workpiece held in the collet is brought in contact with different tools to give the desired shape to the workpiece. There are many types of collets. Examples include a 5C collet and an R8 collet. A 5C collet is a high grade steel for long wear life purpose and is widely used in collet actuators, a lathe chuck, an industrial chuck, and precision spindles. An R8 collet is a round size collet and is widely used as tool shank holders. A 5C collet and an 8C collet provides accurate holding to the workpiece and allows quick changing of the workpiece. Other collets are commonly available.

There are several ways in which collets function. Collets are a work holding fixture. Collet holder hold the workpiece either horizontally or vertically using a chunk fitted in a machine. Collets in round size have dimensions ranging from 1/16 inches to 1 1/16 inches increments. Square or hexagonal collets range in size from 1/8 inches to 11/16 inches in 1/16 inch increments. Collets are designed and manufactured to meet most industry standards.
