Default Drill attachment in place of chuck?

"John Doe" wrote in message
...
Are there any common drill attachments that go in place of the chuck?

So that when the chuck is removed, the attachment can be screwed on in
place of the chuck.

I just need a keyword to search for. Assuming it exists. Of course it
would be drill chuck thread specific.

Thanks.



What exactly are you looking for and/or trying to do?

I have two drill presses in my shop that have never had a drill chuck on
them. They came out of the box and I installed tapping heads in them
instead. I have a third machine (a mill drill) that came to my shop used
with a drill chuck in it, but I immediately knocked the taper out and
installed an MT2-ER25 collet chuck instead.

So, anyway, are you saying that you You have a drill with a male threaded
spindle nose? What do you want to screw onto it? If its just a protector
for the threads I would suggest you identify the thread and find an all
thread coupler that size.
