Good day,
I am looking at buying a spindle mounted 5C collet chuck. I found three types listed:
"Set Thru", "Tru length", and Standard.
I understand the Set Thru. Can anyone clarify what the difference is between Tru Length and Standard is?
I looked for information on both the Bison and Toolmex sites and here and nothing turned up. There is a good bit of price difference. Try Length being the most expensive generally, more expensive than the Set Thru. The drawings showed that he main difference between Standard and Tru length is the length, Tru Length being shorter and it is about as long as the 5C collet, whereas the other two are about an inch longer. Why would that make it more expensive. None of the pages indicate that there is an accuracy difference.
Thanks.
