Easiest/cheapest source of R8 socket

[JasonB]

On JasonB Said:

I wonder if anyone sending their holders back to Haas as being not fit for purpose has got a refund? They are hardly likely to sell unfit goods and are not really aimed at the hobby user

ER16 & ER32. […]

A very fair point, Jason !

It does however leave me wondering which part of the R8 is taking the high torque that’s recommended for closing ER32 collets in ‘non hobby user’ situations.

i.e.  100 ft-lbs or 140 Nm

Does Haas specify  some clever protocol ?

That’s exactly what the post originator was asking 8 days ago? And additionally from personal experience industrial suppliers peddle far eastern crap all the time.
