Main Product Description
CMT 796.162.00 is the exact M16×2 version in the official Series 796 ER20 chuck family. The verified variation row specifies mounting thread S = M16×2, body length LB = 43 mm, and ER20 clamping range B = 2–12.7 mm.
CMT manufactures the chuck from high-strength steel and precision machines the mating surfaces for accuracy. The family is intended for shaper and spindle-moulder applications that accept the matching threaded interface. The chuck converts the compatible machine spindle connection to an ER20 collet-holding system.
The ER20 collet is not included. CMT Series 184 precision ER20 collets are listed for Series 796.122, 796.142, and 796.162 chucks in sizes from 2 mm through 12.7 mm. Official catalog references also identify clamping nut 992.483.03, ER20 wrench 991.483.00, and the TW-200 torque wrench recommendation for proper nut fastening.
