Hi, i've recently replaced my drill press chuck because the old one gave a very obvious wobble to anything chucked in it. I've got a new keyless one and I'm testing it with a dial indicator and getting what seems like a lot of runout, around 0.005". The drill (or in this case a reamer) is straight but not concentric. How much deviation would you guys expect to see? I've checked the drill press taper in different positions and get almost no deviation of the dial indicator so I dont think the drill press is the problem. An online search yielded some values but they seem to range from
0.0005 to 0.010". That range is quite large and I really dont know if I should be expecting better than 0.005" or if I should just tolerate it. If anybody cares, the chuck is a 50$ import not an albrecht (I looked at the albrecht web site and they dont give any runout info on their chuck because they say it depends on the drill press or arbor...)Thanks.
