Jacobs Chuck

Post by mrhart »

I have a 3326 chuck with no key. First time I had ever grabbed that one. Different sixe set screw as well. But I have another chuck with a key for my 520.
I don't know if the 3326 was for the ER or the Geenie, anyone know for sure.

If it has a 3/16" hex socket, it is for a 10E/R. If it has a 5/32" socket, it is for a greenie.

FWIW, it needs a 'K32' key.

You obviously put it someplace where it will be safe. Hint: Have you done a work up high where you would have used the chuck. Like on top of kitchen cabinets or wall mounted shelves.

I recently retrieved my long lost Buck knife from on top of some cabinets at one of the kids homes. It had been about two years.

That was my main thought.

I have never used my Shopsmith "Up High" only out in my garage. I can't imagine drilling above kitchen cabinets with a SS.

My fear is that it fell into a trash can and was removed! That or it is still safe exactly where I left it.

Is this something I have to e-bay or are they easy to come by?

I don't know. I have never shopped for one but they seem to be readily available.

6 results on Amazon ranging in price from $5.20 to $19.61

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Jacobs+chuck+key+K32

I think this one is your best bet. In terms of both price and vendor. Provided it is in fact a K32 that you require.

here is a link to a pdf from Jacobs that tells which keys go with which chucks.
