9 forum posts	I have a Stanley hand drill and I have lost the chuck jaws and springs. I have tried Stanley but they do not supply spare parts for their drills.Ipurchased the drill around 1950-yes 1950-the drill spindle and chuck thread is 7/16"x26tpi.Has anyone suggestions?

The sleeve could then be loctited ito the back of the chuck. The other way would be to dismantle the drill and turn down the spindle end to 3/8" and thread this to suit a standard 3/8" chuck. Mike

In their 1992 price list, however, Stanley list spare jaws and springs for all of their hand drills including two models then discontinued. Their motto then was "The best tools you can lay hands on".
