You got caught by the spamulator filter Graham it will leave you alone after a few posts.

I think the pricing is down to volume sales, certainly the higher priced ones from Axminster are made on their own CNC machines and production volumes must be considerably lower than the far east ones marketed by Chronos etc.

Hi Graham,

Welcome to the forum.

Chas is right, once you have a couple more posts you will not hit the spam trap.

I have 2 FX4000 chucks one of them has more than 1mm of wobble the other already has broken teeth on the gears inside. With the cheap Chinese made chucks you can be lucky and get a good one but the quality is not as good as the originals.
