Best keyless chuck?

[Keefy]

After a keyless chuck for my SDS drill, are £5 ones just as good as any?

The cheap ones tend to fail quickly if you use them in a hammer drill.

I doubt if a 5 pound chuck would be any use at all.
Get an all metal Rohm or a fixtec

I'll only be needing it for going through wood with flat bits and a hole saw kit so won't be using it on hammer. Just feeling a bit disappointed with 'leading quality brands' lately and don't want to waste my money if I can help it.

I have one of the cheap ones, they do the job

Think I'll try a cheap one and see how it goes, if it breaks then I'll check out the Rohm or Fixtec ones as mentioned by tamz.

Thanks for the replies.

Seems very reasonable that.

I can locate loads of them for sale, they supposed to be rare?

 

[turnpin]

Not if you can locate them easily ... just found I`v used them in the past and found them a.o.k currently have a Bosch myself and as stated don`t use in hammer mode and should be fine regards turnpin

 

[zzzjim]

Cheap one I have not spot on true ,due to wobbly fit

OK unless doing fine stuff ( agree with Expensive-made in China syndrome )

( says no Hammer in instructions !)

Need to know urgently whether I need a 3/8" or 1/2" keyless chuck for my SDS Makita HR2470. Been all round the net and Makita's site but still can't find a definitive answer to this. My drill isn't here with me as I left it at the job, my MI's don't mention it and I need to get the right one first thing in the morning.

I know a few of you have the same drill so if you have a keyless chuck for it could you have a quick gander and let me know a.s.a.p please? Cheers!

Got a sudden case of the dumbs and can't figure out why it should be one and not the other.
