Often found on both the main and sub spindles of lathes, they are spin indexers for both the mill and lathe, they truly are a work horse.

The 5C system lends itself to most jobs.

United StatesGood tool at fair price
These are a great value. Fit and finish is good.
United StatesDisappointed
Toolholders themselves are pretty good. The tool post is terrible, wedges are super loose, and mechanism feels like it is full of gravel.
United States5C collet rack
These are nice racks keeps me organized and I don't have to go searching. They make it nice and handy to have all your collets in one place.

United StatesColton Quick Change kit
This is a really nice set of tool holders. The fit and finish is excellent. The quality was much better than I expected.
Hold It Right There
I use this set to hold all kinds of shapes and sized items to slot, cut, and mill. This is a nice set, have had no problems with fit and finish,or holdings slipping or moving. Threads on rods and nuts are smooth and work well. Just wish the tool holder was metal. Decent price also.
United StatesVery nice.
Nice product, well made.
United StatesToolpost review
Very happy with the toolpost. Very smooth movement to clamp the toolholder. One thing to keep in mind is that it comes with a base which needs to be machined to match your lathe. Not a big deal if you have a mill.
United StatesMill clamps
Good price for the clamps.. good quality.. fast shipping.. just wish the holder was metal instead of plastic.. but great product..
United StatesBest Packaged and Most Consistent Gages In The Market!!
So far, I'm very impressed with the fit and finish of these gages. Compared to the competition, I checked every single pin gage for accuracy and they were spot on. I'm also very pleased that finally there is a proper and professional quality packaging for this item - from the case and the individual pin gage cases themselves is amazing. I have the .201" to .300" gage set, and I will adding to rest of the sets to complete my pin collection.

United StatesClamps for a drill press
Well made, easy to use, good variety of pieces, and a great value.
United StatesExcellent tool holders
The Compton tool holders are top notch. I’ve owned other brands and find the Colton has a better finish
United StatesI tried to cancel the order
Its a good product but I am unhappy that you ignored my email to you. Just after ordering the clamping kit I realized that I had ordered a kit with 3/8" bolts when I need a kit with 1/2" bolts. I tried to cancel the order within 5 minutes after I ordered it but your group ignored my request to cancel my order. I am using the kit that you sent but it isn't what my mill needs.
United StatesSo many uses
These things are great, I wish you sold them in packs of 10.
United StatesInaccurate description, beware!
This is not a 1/16” diameter tool, as indicated, causing me to purchase collets for. Shows up, and it is an 1/8” shank. How I have two 20$ collets I will probably never use.
United StatesVery nice mill
Nice tool, good value
