Important Update Regarding Sherline Products
October 20, 2026
We would like to share an encouraging development regarding the future of Sherline Products.
We are currently in discussions with an American manufacturer regarding the potential purchase of Sherline’s intellectual property and remaining inventory. The goal of this proposed acquisition is to preserve and revitalize the Sherline brand while providing continued availability of replacement parts, accessories, and machines for our valued customers.
As these discussions progress, we have agreed to temporarily suspend accepting new orders, effective October 19, 2026. This will allow us to preserve our remaining inventory while negotiations are underway.
Although no final agreement has been reached, we are hopeful that this opportunity will provide a positive path forward for the Sherline name and the customers who have trusted our products for more than five decades.
We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued loyalty during this transition. We will share additional information as soon as it becomes available.
Our greatest hope is that the Sherline legacy of quality, precision, and American craftsmanship will continue for generations to come.

5/32″ 0JT Chuck with #0 Morse adjustable back
The 5/32″ 0JT chuck with adjustable backplate brings a new level of centering accuracy to the 5/32″ chuck. Extremely tiny drill bits require perfect centering or they are easily broken. By adjusting the front plate in relation to the rear plate which is mounted in the tailstock, perfect centering with the headstock can be achieved. This means your tiny drills hit the exact center of your part every time and do not break due to misalignment. This chuck can easily pay for itself in less broken bits in a short time.
NOTE: If you already have a P/N 1015 5/32″ chuck, you can purchase just the backing plate which is P/N 1204. The 0JT arbor that is pressed into the back of the chuck can be tapped out and the chuck can be pressed onto the arbor of P/N 1204. If you have the P/N 1010 chuck (#1 MT back) and intend to change back and forth on a regular basis, we recommend you purchase the P/N 1016 chuck separately to avoid constantly pressing the chuck onto and off of the tapered back.

5/32″ Drill Chuck with #1 Morse Arbor
These chucks are designated “0JT” which stands for “Zero Jacobs Taper,” because it comes with a #0 Jacobs tapered hole in the back. Into that, we have pressed a special arbor that provides a #1 Morse taper to fit into the Sherline headstock. A chuck key plus a drawbolt and washer are included to secure the chuck in position.
These chucks are useful for holding very small drills and their shorter length provides an increase of about 1/2" in working space between centers compared to the 1/4" drill chuck.
Runout, as specified by the manufacturer, is .004" or less but we try to maintain .003" or less in our testing process. If runout of less than .003" amount is required, collets should be used to hold the drill rather than a chuck.
NOTE: Because the arbor is pressed into the chuck, it is not interchangeable from chuck to chuck. A separate chuck must be purchased for #0 and #1 Morse use.
