Do routers have collets?

A collet is the steel sleeve that holds a router bit in a router. The collet works with the router shaft (connected directly to the motor) and the collet nut. … The gap allows the collet and bit to be pulled down as the nut is tightened.

What are the most common sizes of collets for the router?

Ellis Walentine: Many routers come with two collets so they can accommodate the two most popular bit shank diameters, 1/4″ and 1/2″. The shank diameter is based loosely on the size and weight of the bit.
