ER40 collet chuck on Amazon

[skippyelwell]

This arrived a few days ago, the price is good and so is the quality, all the collets fit nicely.
However, they send the wrong wrench so you have to grind about a 1/4" off of it the make it usable.
Not a big deal, but the guy boxing it up must be able to see that it doesn't fit.

I had to do the same thing to the spanner that came with my ER32 SpinIndexer a few years ago.

You actually think the person putting stuff in a box knows what they are looking at? You're a funny guy!

Seems OK price - nothing special - would have purchased one if I did not make one already like 2 or 3 years ago.

If you're like most of us you'll really enjoy the collet chuck. Mine is on the lathe 80% of the time.

As to the wrench, I bought my chuck from Precision Matthews and it also came with the 55-62 size wrench. I didn't like it either so I made a new one and a larger one to hold the chuck when tightening.

Thread 'ER40 D1-4 Collet Chuck Question'

Jun 1, 2021

I've been looking the usual places for an ER40 D1-4 collet chuck and this one caught my eye;

Anyone have any experience with this adjustable style chuck? I like that it's adjustable and from Precision Matthews I would hope it's decent quality.
I know it's pricey but with the other offshore stuff being hit or miss on the quality I'd rather spend a little more and get a good one right from the start.
