Chronos chuck jaws

[graduate_owner]

Hi everyone,
About 18 months ago there were some postings regarding the Chronos steb centre lookalikes (currently out of stock, but very affordable) and Chronos chuck jaws, again very affordable at under £20. However someone raised the issue of compatibility with other makes of chuck and I was wondering if anyone has bought any or has any info regarding quality and compatibility. I would get some if I knew they would fit my Axminster chuck.

Although Chronos sell a 100mm chuck they only seem to have additional jaws for the 95mm and 115mm as far as I can see? I too would be interested to know for sure though as I have a 100mm Clubman and those Chronos jaws are a very good price.

I think you have got that a little wrong he wants to know if the chuck jaws will fit his Axminster chuck, not the chuck fit his lathe

Ooooh...I see, sorry misunderstood!

Yes Stiggy, it is the actual jaws I am interested in, but thank you for taking the time to reply. These jaws seem really inexpensive, as do the drive centres. I shall be getting myself a drive centre as soon as they are back in stock - a steb type centre for about £15.
Meanwhile if anyone has bought these jaws please let everyone know.

I'm intrigued by the reference to Cole jaw plates for a a 135mm 4 jaw chuck, can't find a reference to an appropriate chuck.

I've had a close look at the picture on the Chronos site and the groove on the back of the jaws is not in the same position in relation to the bolt holes as the Axminster so sadly I can't see how they could fit.
