I am absolutely amazed about the good content Haas puts out here. I wish that every CNC-Machine company would put out such good content. This is soo imortant info for begginers in this trade and usually refer people to your videos when they lost control over the info listed in dry and boring books, making them rather confused than educated.
For taps, we would need a set of Tap Collets for Inch, and a different set of Tap Collets for Metric. Even though they are close (1/4-20 tap, and M6 tap), they are not exact, and tap collets must fit exactly, they have no range to them. For a Ø1/4" endmill (6.35mm) we could use either a 1/4" collet or a 6-7mm Standard collet (I'd use a 5-6mm collet for a 6mm endmill). Standard collets have a certain amount of range to them, flexibility, while Solid Sealed and Tapping Collets must be exact fits.
Simply incredibly how organized and well presented your information is. I am Bi (Imperial and Metric) so I am looking forward to the metric companion video 🙂
i hoped you create a video for this topic. Very nice. Please more videos with our best man Mark. please Edit: My dear Mark, many many sealed ER-Collets look different. "Our" look completely different. Easy to recognize.
There are special ER Collet Nuts built for coolant as well. These require seal-discs with rubber o-rings. Typically, the Solid Coolant Collets can handle much higher Through Spindle Coolant pressures than the o-ring styles.

Hi Mark Enjoyed the video. As people outside of the USA watch these videos, it would have been good if you had briefly mention the different standards that taps are manufactured to. The various standards have different size shanks and square drives. So the table you showed at the start of the video was meaningless unless the standard was shown. For example I use taps manufactured to the JIS standard. Cheers John
At my job, we tap 6061 aluminum on repeat jobs, and for our M5 form tap, we got a tap collet. For everyone M4 and below, we just use an ER collet with no issues! That said if you were form tapping stainless, it would be a different story.
So ¼" tap and M6 tap are the same size? Or do you mean that there is a need of BOTH imperial and metric collets? I'm sorry, but I like 19mm better than 0,748"... Yes I know that it is almost ¾" but not quite...

@@markterryberry4477 Yes, what I was thinking 😉. Just pulling softly on the never ending "imperial or metric" machinist chain. "Tytan" guys did two excellent videos about why metric is better than imperial, that is better than metric, that is better than imperial and so on. Just having some fun 🤭😜🤣!

vitor souza, you can enable the auto-translate function by doing the following: Click the "CC" button at the lower right corner, then click the "Gear Wheel" Settings icon. Click "Subtitles/CC" and then select "Auto Translate" and then select "Portuguese" from the list of languages.

WE LOVE YOU MARK!
That odd size is called Metric :)))
No it’s not

Never been less than 500m from a machine like these in my life yet this is to entertaining...

Absolutely. Great comment. We'll hit this topic again with a broader reach - Metric, and different standards
Always great tips! thanks!
Thanks, Mark! It looks like you've given us a tip top tap tip. :)
Uggh. But approved.
THANKS, FOR THIS GREAT TUTORIAL ON THESE COLLET FEATURES, AND USE TIPS!!
When it comes to metric taps, shanks are always rounded up numbers, so 4, 6, 8..
Huh, This Old Tony a few days ago now you. ER collets are the topic of the week.
This Old Tony is not gay!!😄
@@johnspathonis1078 Oh no, what have I done!

Sehr informativ.
Thanks a lot.
Спасибо Вам за урок и видео. 👍👍👍
Thank You! Great content! Greetings.
Terimakasih anda sangat membantu saya👍
ER25 is best collet size. Change my mind.
I put a er16 in a er40, that way it gets twice as tight
The best for what? We use Er8,11,16,20,25,32, and 40 at my job and they are all great in certain applications.
But in woodworking there are only 1 size collets. Is woodworking more precise than metal machining?
No and no
what is the meaning of ER?
if only there was a system where you dont have to memorize all sorts of odd sizes.. oh wait there is! its called metric :)
exactly
Put a man on the moon, then we'll talk. In the meantime take a league walk of a furlong pier.

@@faxxzc better keep it all imperial then.
Metric isn't without odd sizes!!
+1 for the tap collets.. Anything else is a waste of time.
Woooo! 1000th like! 😎 can I get 25% off a TL-1 now? 😅
Could you put the subtitles in Portuguese ?
