USER GUIDE ER - Top Clamping Nut for DIN 6499 Collets Description Friction bearing ER nut is a nut with a unique two- Insertion Procedure piece exclusive friction mechanism, combining 1. Insert the collet at an angle, fitting the two extractor radial and angular self-centering movements. teeth which protrude (A) into the collet’s groove (B). 2. Place the two parts on a clean and horizontal work surface. Features 3. Press down with your thumb on the back end • Unique two-piece friction bearing of the collet until it clicks into place (C). • Radial and angular float for better concentricity • Powerful gripping force, 50-100% higher than the standard ER nut due to the friction bearing mechanism • Balanced for higher spindle spin due to unique extractor teeth design • Compact design - general dimensions and size range are the same as the standard nut ER, SC & SHRINK Collets • Designed for use with sealed collets Always assemble the collet into the nut before mounting onto the collet chuck.
