type/ brand drill chuck

[butcher_block]

need some help finding a drill chuck and R8 mount for my mini mill
the one that came with it wobbles badly least in my eyes
any help on brand or places to find one would be great
if i can get one at MSC thats the way i think i want to go i can have it here next day as there close to home for me
can i reuse the R8 mount off the old chuck?
thanks

See if you can get the chuck off the R8 mount and try to get
a TRI reading off the tip of the mount (as long as it is not marred etc).

You can also try reseating the chuck on the mount. I don't beleive
you can buy a chuck that is so bad it shows visual runout.

You'd need to figure out the taper on the chuck end of the mount ( JTx)
and order matching chuck, if your R8 mount checks out fine.

HF carries quite a variety too.
