Machinists? Help me ID a collet!
I have these two collets that came with a newer machine I bought earlier this year. Unfortunately, they're not the same style of collet used in my older machines. I think those are "ER16" collets.
The closest I can figure is these are a new style "SE" collet, but I can't really find squat about them, much less anyone who sells them. I need another collet, with a 7-8mm different bore size, very quickly. Anyone seen these before? This one on the left has a "TP" logo or something on it. Can't find anything related to "TP" There are no other markings anywhere, on either of them.   Calipers show the diameter at the widest point.

I'm a master CNC machinist. Those look like DNA 16 (Dead Nuts Accurate) colletts from Techniks.

Thanks! I'll give them a call tomorrow and see what they say. They do look very similar, yes!

TP might be the logo of TecnoPinz: Tecnopinz SA - Collets and Nuts
