Cheap Enco drill press arbor vs. Jacobs arbor
I need a drill press arbor(3MT to 6JT). I just went to Enco website and found that
"Enco" brand arbor cost $3 vs. Jacobs brand arbor for $17. Does Jacobs arbor worth extra money? BTW I'll be using this arbor for Jacobs 0-1/2 plain bearing chuck Thanks, Alex |

They may not be as nicely finished (the tang might be a bit rough) and they might not be heat treated quite as nicely, but they function well. YMMV. Regards, Robin |
