Hello,

If you want a Rohm drill chuck on an MT2 taper. just buy a complete unit from Tracy Tools. They do a range of Rohm chucks on MT tapers and they are cheaper than most, especially if you have to buy the chuck and MT2 taper individually if you want to DIY!

Andrew.

I did that although not from Tracy tools I should add. The chuck wobbled all over the place once in the mill so I had to bin the arbor and buy a new one. Guess I was just unlucky in getting a Friday afternoon arbor. The chucks not bad but not as good as an Albrecht.
