Rego-Fix Collets and Collet Nuts

Post by Burnside »

I posted this over at sawmill creek, but figured I'd share here as well given how happy I've been so far.

I decided to pickup some ER25 collets (standard TIR) and I figured why not a matching set of collet nuts from Rego-Fix. These guys are the "R" in ER, so I figured they might now something about designing ER collets/nuts. :D

All I can say is wow. They clamp smoothly and securely. Not to mention, the fit and finish is impeccable. The collet nuts are just awesome. I also swear that during the spindle warmup they were quieter. Could be placebo, but I'll use them again this weekend, so we'll see after I get done milling 8/4 coffee table legs out of red oak.

Just figured I would share these thoughts since I couldn't find much in the way of recommended collets/nuts. I can definitively say that the saying "a collet is just a collet" couldn't be further from the truth.
