Rotary burr walking out of collet
I bought some 6mm burrs on a 3mm shank.
I also have a Silverline rotary tool: http://www.silverlinetools.com/en-GB...i-Tools/249765 I find the burr walks out and I can't seem to tighten up the collets sufficiently to make it stay in place for a decent length of time. Is there an alternative system that doesn't have this problem? Perhaps thread/bearing lock compound? -- Mike Perkins Video Solutions Ltd www.videosolutions.ltd.uk |

The link says "3.2 mm collet" -- lokks like you have a 3 mm shank in an 1/8" collet. Thomas Prufer |

As I said in reply to Bob, I hadn't considered the difference and the consequence. -- Mike Perkins Video Solutions Ltd www.videosolutions.ltd.uk |
