FAQs
What sizes of tool shanks can the 2” mini chucks accommodate?
The chucks are appropriate for micro drill bits, grinding stones, and other tiny rotating accessories since they normally take tool shanks between 0.3 mm and 3.2 mm (about 1/8 inch).
How do I install the mini chuck on my drill or rotary tool?
Thread or fit the tiny chuck onto the spindle tightly after unscrewing the current chuck or collet from your tool. Securely tighten by hand or, if provided, with a wrench.
Can I use the mini chuck set on cordless drills?
Yes, provided that the spindle of your drill fits the mounting requirements for the tiny chuck. Check the product description or handbook for compatibility.
How do I tighten and loosen the mini chuck?
To tighten or loosen the grip on your tool shank, turn the chuck collar clockwise or anticlockwise using the wrench or chuck key that comes with it.
Are these mini chucks compatible with all rotary tools?
The majority of rotary tools with a 2″ spindle or adapter can use them; however, for particular chuck compatibility, consult your tool’s handbook.
What maintenance is required for the mini chuck set?
Keep the chuck jaws and threads free of dust and debris regularly. To guarantee smooth operation and stop rust, lightly lubricate with machine oil.
Can the mini chuck hold accessories other than drill bits?
Indeed, it is capable of safely storing small burrs, polishing tools, grinding bits and other rotating accessories that fall within the chuck’s size range.
