What collet is this?

[CoopVA]

There was a face plate that came with my lathe that had this bolted to it...



Inside was this collet...




One side of the face of the collet is stamped 1/2, which I believe is the size. Opposite this is stamped a "T" with something else that looks like it was destroyed when the slits were cut.

Any body know what type collet this is?

Maybe...

Yep, could be. Could be a swiss too... Will definatly have to take measurements.

The holder looks to be home made. I like it, and hopefully will be able to determine it's actual type... I wonder if the collet was home made too... The stamping is kind of crude...

It is the same shap as the collets in my die grinder.

So I took some measurements.



I searched through all the collets on ShopHardinge.com and the closest I could come up with is a Swiss Type TF24, which measures .9367x2.440x15*.

I do believe the TF24 will work. I measured the bore, and it is @ .937 +/-. I may get one just to test fit.

So the search continues...

Found a 7/16" TF24 on eBay for $14... We'll see how it fits...
