Camlock spindle specs.

[John Stevenson 1Participant @johnstevenson1]

Before I spend ages looking for the standards on the D1-5 Camlock specs does anyone have a copy or access to one.

What I need to know is, short of measuring everything up, The layout of the pins and lock screws and depths.

Also a drawing for the pins, good enough so I can make some new pins and backplates. I know the pins can be bought but I want to keep the thread the same as the ones I already have which is M12 x 1

Had enough problems when I had the D1-3 on the CVA with 3/8" BSF, 3/8" UNF, M10 x 1 and M10 x 1.5

I can go to my local library and get a look at the standards and photocopy 2 pages per trip but don't want to spend the best part of 1/2 a day if the standards don't give this information out.

There is a chart giving some of the dimensions on Tony Griffith's site (lathes.co.uk) . Don't know how comprehensive the chart is but it might help.

Keith

This link might help as well

Thanks Keith, seen all these but none of them give enought to make a new backplate and pins.

What I don't want is to spend time getting the standards only to find the same info as what is on the web.

OK sorted.

Bless the Chinese.
