Fitting a collet chuck to a lathe

• To mount a collet chuck to your lathe it is necessary to add a backplate.

• Machining the backplate is best undertaken on your lathe to achieve maximum accuracy.

• To do this, secure the back plate to the spindle. Skim across the face to ensure squareness, then machine a spigot to match the register of the collet chuck.

• It is necessary to measure the PCD of the fixing holes in order to secure the chuck to the backplate.

• Range of lathe back plates available here.
