I'm on the lookout for a collet or two for this nasty design of a holder,
and that easily lost screw lock bit, one that takes a 12mm slot drill and a
1/2" one initially.

Did Clarkson ever make a QC 30 holder?

I have plenty of 40INT, MT2/3, 30INT clarkson chucks/collets and wonder if a
chuck is available in QC 30 that would take them.

Yes they do do clarkson autolock 30int collet chucks on ebay

but they attract a lot of bids ...and you would probably end up paying
more than ?30 for one .

30 international DA  collet chucks are from ?5 - ?16 depending on how
lucky you are

I held out over months and got several for under ?7 and a 180 piece
set of DA  collets for ?90

bristol acramill collet chucks are around ?12 with no collets ...and
up to ?40 with a set of four collets ...either metric or
imperial...make sure you have the lock washers

brand new QC30-ER32-060 ER STYLE COLLET CHUCKs
available from Cromwell for ?56.46 inc

Charles... good man ...gave me his spare lock washers some months back.

I'm eternally grateful ....thanks Charles

all the best.mark

Only got a spare 1/2" backing plate but no collet.
Probably not much use

Charles, It is of use, its a start in the right direction, and I will gladly
take it from you. Advise me of postage and item costs.

Email me your postal address and I'll pop it in the post.
It's not worth worrying about money for it but if you know of a cheap
Hiab man (or have a hefty gantry I can borrow) then tell me!

Regards

I'm pretty sure they do exist, identifiable by the cylindrical body
having a groove for the QC locking ring.
Maybe you could modify your 30int chuck, if the cylinder OD is about
right?

Didn't think of that, worth a look and a measure, but still would like to
source a Clarkson in QC30

There are some QC30 to ER collet chucks but they are like hens teeth.
I'm working on getting a batch imported but it won't be a short term
option, probably second quarter 2007.
