Re: Unimat watchmakers drawbar


 

Hi all,

My Unimat WW drawbar measures, from threaded female end to the shoulder, 4.448"/113mm.

Cheers,
James

WW collets are .275-40 threads.
In metric that would be M7-1.0.
That is the same for WW and Moseley collets.? Be careful because ebay sells what they call WW and they are Conoid.
That is a swooping radius instead of a chamfer on the outside.
The WW works on a conoid spindle but a conoid does not work on a WW spindle.
I have conoid collets and they do not work on my Sherline.
I can measure my sherline drawbar.? Pretty sure its too short.

The Sherline collets alone are a good value.

Collets are on the way.
For me it is not clear how long the Sherline drawbar is.
Also the thread is not metric like the collets I bought.
