ER25 atb 16 mm is just smaller so not much use to you. FWIW, I would favour a backplate type collet chuck, so that longer work can extens into the spindle bore. When I fitted a chuck mto the backplate on my lathe, I coated the surfaces with anaerobic sealant, and with the bolts lightly nipped, clocked the taper bore until it was within 0.0005", before fully tightening bthe bolts and rechecking.
