5C-13 5C Collet — 13 mm bore, 87 mm length (Vertex)

The 5C-13 is a 5C collet designed for secure clamping of 13 mm cylindrical shanks in general workshop turning and milling operations

• Precision runout tolerance 0.02 mm
• 13 mm bore for standard shank sizes
• 87 mm overall length for deeper clamping
• Lightweight 0.21 kg for easy handling

Consistent precision for repeatable machining quality

The collet delivers repeatable clamping via a close runout tolerance of 0.02 mm, which reduces vibration and improves surface finish on turned and milled components. A small runout specification means tools and workpieces are held concentrically, translating into fewer rejects and less rework. The 13 mm bore matches common shank diameters used in toolholding and workpiece fixtures, enabling straightforward integration into existing tooling setups. This combination of dimensional control and standard sizing supports efficient production cycles where accuracy matters.

Practical compatibility and application benefits

Built to the 5C standard, this clamping solution fits established 5C tooling systems and supports everyday workshop demands. The 87 mm overall length allows for deeper engagement where extended reach is required without sacrificing grip stability, helping to secure longer workpieces or tooling extensions. Lightweight construction at 0.21 kg simplifies handling during changeover and reduces operator fatigue over repeated swaps. Where quick, reliable clamping is required, this collet provides a pragmatic balance between accessibility and machining performance.

Robust handling, serviceability and supply assurance

Maintenance is straightforward: keep the collet and mating surfaces clean and lubricated to preserve clamping accuracy and lifetime performance. The product benefits from Vertex manufacturing standards and is supplied through Metav Werkzeuge, whose European fulfilment in Emmerich functions as a quality filter for the market. This distribution approach ensures consistent availability and reliable delivery, backed by Metav’s decades of experience in precision tools and workshop equipment.
