chuck jaw screws

[pete honeyman]

Hi there

Does anyone happen to know the thread size of the screws that hold that jaws on a supernova 2 chuck?

They're M6 Countersunk screws, but they have an unusually small head, and therfore a standard M6 countersunk screw won't work as well as it sits proud of the hole.

The manufacturers actually sell a set of 8 screws, but I was too much of a skinflint to shell out ~£3 plus postage on just 8 screws!!

Cheers

Thanks for that - it seems you have to buy an 'accessory pack' now, and that's a tenner, but sounds like it's the only way to go.

Excellent, many thanks for that, ordered some (and a couple of other things).
