I opened up the closer on my Yuasa Speeder this morning for the first
time
and found this. I think the guy I bought it from might have mentioned
this,
but I don't recall. The broken part looks similar to an AccuraFlex
collet.
I have some larger ones for one of my collet chucks. It doesn't look
exactly the same (size not withstanding) though.

Anybody know what collet that is? Is it a Yuasa only part?

It still works to clamp the collet/holder that actually holds the end
mill,
but it would be nice to have one that isn't broken.

The Nikken SK Collets look like they might be the ticket. Thank you very
much. I'll do some more looking.

I didn't look very close at your pics, just thought I'd toss that out....you
can probably find dimensions if you poke around.

Also, pretty much everybidy is familiar with the tg100 collets but there is
also smaller true grip series that's known as tg75 and tg50...that said,
Yuasa probably would not have used an Erickson collet nose so I'm leaning
heavily towards the SK.
