[Spindle]

Hi

Not sure what you're using an Axi catalogue for - look here for details of how to determine your spindle thread:

As I said - from the measurements you supplied it's probably 1 1/8" x 7 TPI which is not a thread I've seen chucks or adaptors produced for. Hopefully you haven't committed too much funding to this purchase - your best bet may be to cut you losses and start again with something a little more mainstream.

Sad to say it but I have to agree. Help is always available here 'before' you decide to buy.

Only have £50 into it and some fuel money.

It seems as if an inserts available for a supernova2 chuck. They list a 7 & 8 tip but you guys say it's a 7tpi?

Hopefully I can make use of it otherwise I'll keep the motor and scrap the body in

Hi

I can only guess at what the thread is - your TPI measurement is not accurate enough to be certain. You need to accurately measure the spindle thread and use the dimensions you get to determine the thread size from the document I linked.
