I asked what collets and what nut, not for smart mouthed comments
Re: Help with spindle please
They are proprietary, not an industry-wide standard like ER collets, that is where to buy them from, along with part numbers.
Re: Help with spindle please
thanks Got a price for a 3.175mm - 1/8" collet from them today £45 + £5 postage for each size, think a chineese ER11 spindle is the way to go. was hoping that someone may know if there Kress there a lot cheaper, google dose not know before some smart arse chimes in with google is your friend

I found this listing in 5 minutes using a little intelligent searching using........
Yes, you guessed it, Google!
I was tempted not to bother but it might help someone else later.

Thanks its helpfull to know there the same, but my spindle is a UFM 500 not listed
Re: Help with spindle please
It actually looks like they aren't, the part numbers for the 500 and 1050 collets are different and Kress listing suggests they share a fitting with the 1050, not the 500.
Re: Help with spindle please
cheers I have found some kress 580 in germany may just buy one and see, But thank you for trying, I have spent weeks looking for collets and a nut, think im going to put in bottom draw and look into chinese spindle, start reading from scratch again
Steve
Re: Help with spindle please
This company lists the correct collets near the bottom of the page -

I don't know if they are still trading or have stock but it's worth asking - again, found using Google and varying search terms!
Re: Help with spindle please
cheers found them waiting for reply for 2 weeks now but sk11 info is helpfull
Re: Help with spindle please
You'll have noticed that they list different collets for the 500 to the 1050 and it's the 1050 that's common with Kress?
Re: Help with spindle please
yes I wondered if the small kress was same, rapidly coming to think a ew11 china man spindle may be way forward, deciding which one, and finding a mount that matches with the 100mm T slots
Steve
Re: Help with spindle please
If you know anyone who's handy with a lathe the could make you a nut and a collet or two.

Can you supply the sizes large and small end + length of the collet you want to match to the Kress I have a set of collets and nuts I could check.
Or should I Google.

Re: Help with spindle please
no I dont, just looking through flea bay now for a spindle that takes ew11 collets, trying to remember what the 3 phase converter ones are called
