Thread: Sources of decent quality ER25 Imperial Collets
02/05/2023 13:57:12

Hi, I'm looking to buy a complete set of ER25 imperial collets and would like to be sure that the ones I get have an acceptable degree of runout ( I've read elsewhere on this forum that this should be around 0.01mm ). I've seen some advertised by WARCO and was wondering if anyone has bought these and what they think of them or if anyone knows of an alternate supplier.

Cheers

Anthony

Thread: Need help zeroing an old style M&W No.961SB 0-1"micrometer
04/10/2017 00:20:47

Hi,

I've inherited my grandfather's 0-1" micrometer (an older style M&W - model No.961SB) and am trying to adjust it to get rid of an error of about 3/10 of one thou that's showing-up when zeroing.

If I'm understanding the adjustment technique correctly, then I should be trying to use the spanner with the small pin to rotate the sleeve by the required amount - only problem is, the sleeve doesn't want to move and the hole that takes the pin of the spanner is elongated (worn?) meaning that the pin keeps slipping out.

If anyone can offer advice on a way around this, I'd be very grateful.

PS: I know that the 'B' on the end of the model number means the micrometer is graduated in tenths-of-a-thou, but what does the 'S' stand for?

Cheers

Anthony
