8PC Pool Cue POM Ferrule/Shaft Collet Sleeve - Cue Building Tool Lathe Accessory

Perfect for making cue repairs on my lathe. Not bad for the money.

Neatly produced and ... they are consistent parts. I would place a rubber balloon or tape on my 800 dollar shaft to avoid smashing the wood-grain or deforming the maple shaft. There are other ways to avoid denting the cue. They marked the collet s with sizes - I think they are very nice. about 1" tall I may chamfer (bevel) [a tick] the inside edges 'a fraction' to avoid denting the shafts or use tape or thin tubing. I see leather on the You tube being used often, rather than this "Delrin" plastic, they call, "POM" - uh 'Acetal copolymer rods.' I call it Delrin. Like Nylon - sort of.

Perfect for cue tip replacement on a lathe. Excellent durability.

The collets are sized right, well made, and hold the shafts centered. But it's hard to tell them apart because there's no permanent size markings on the collets. They come with stickers on them to indicate the size, but the stickers throw the shaft off center, so you should remove them.

I probably have an unusually good experience since the outer size of the collet collar happened to fit flawlessly into the back of the "through hole" in my lathe and stabilized the shaft so effortlessly it was astonishing!! They fit various sized shafts well, protect them from the Chuck jaws, and hold them tight, centered and true for a very fair price....couldn't ask for much more than that!!

Great products

Took too much time for the shipment, but, the product is good quality.Amazon is taking to long to send something, is not like a year ago that you order and get the product faster

I'm not sure why I thought these were 3/4" OD, but they will not fit my 3/4" pillow block bearings without an additional sleeve of 5/8" ID X 3/4" OD tubing, which I intend to try. Quality seems ok for what they are and shipping from China was sooner than predicted...
