Will hold collets with a body diameter of .312 to .313″
The collet adapter goes into the #1 Morse taper of the headstock. WW collets are then placed in the adapter and are drawn up tight using the drawbar which passes through the hole in the spindle (not included with adapter).
*NOTE: Our WW collet adapter does not have a keyway pin for the collets. Our customers have been using our WW collets on our lathes without a key pin for over forty years without any problems.
This set contains a complete selection of 17 (14 for the metric set) Sherline WW collets, including a blank, 3/4" and 1" pot chucks with dowel pin, an adapter, drawbar, and a knockout bar. It comes in a high-quality wood box constructed with finger joint corners that has a brass latch and hinges. A machined wood insert locates each part, plus a drawing in the lid reminds you where each piece goes to keep things organized. Extra holes are provided should you want to add additional collets to suit your particular needs. This set is a handsome and useful package for the serious miniature machinist.
Inch Collet Sizes:These collets have a maximum runout of .002" or less. If the WW collet adapter is trued in as suggested in the instructions, it will run dead true. This will allow the collet runout to be at its best. Collet sizes above 3/16" (4.5mm), considered pot chucks, are not bored through. They are only bored .260" deep and depending on your setup and length of the part, you may experience greater runout further away from the front of the collet.
Each set includes:*NOTE: Our WW collet adapter does not have a keyway pin for the collets. Our customers have been using our WW collets on our lathes without a key pin for over forty years without any problems.
REPLACEMENT INSERT CARDS: If you have damaged or lost your insert card, you can download a new one from the Instructions tab above. Then print it out, cut it to size using the crop mark guides, and insert it back into the box lid.
