WTB: Collet Chuck for my 8145

AeroTD&G · May 22, 2017

I'm looking for a 5C collet chuck for my SB 13" 8145 lathe (11446TKL14). I need the draw bar, collet sleeve, and the spindle nose cap. It has the large spindle hole.
Anyone have these for sale and/or is there a supplier I could source them from?

If you would prefer a Sjogren-Hardinge, there's one for sale on page 2 of the Sales section; it has d1-4 camlocs, but the plate can be changed.

Ooops! it's the 6 jaw chuck that has the removable plate, not the Sjogren!!

I found this chuck doing a search: Plain Back 5C Collet Chuck Lathe Use | eBay
Anyone have any experience with one or heard pros/cons of it?
It seems it would serve my purposes and I have an extra back plate to mount it on.

I have a Bison 5C chuck similar to the one you're looking at. The only negative thing I can think of is that it takes a lot of winding of the chuck key to tighten or loosen the collet. If you're not in a hurry, no big deal. Mine is very accurate, within .001"
