ER20 Collets, Best place to Buy...

[paris_tj]

I need some ER20 collets, where is the best place to buy some good cheap ones?

Looking at MSC AccuPro ones for $16.99 and free shipping, is there any better deals/Quality out there? I need 5-10 so a little savings will add up.

Shars.com has a very good price on these, and they actually list their runout as well (.0003" on a 1/16th") which is very reasonable for what I do.

I bought some er20 collets from www.maritool.com
Very good quality and priced right

Just got thru buying three ER40 collets from Shars and the only options on shipping were so expensive I complained. I got a response back from them telling me if I had CALLED in the order they were now shipping USPS which is cheaper but they haven't updated the online options. Freight was 1/2 of the cost of the collets.I was sad at the response needless to say.

I can tell you where NOT to buy.

Plain junk........ "Accuracy: 0.01mm. Made of high grade spring steel" I'm doubting the accuracy as some of the slots were not cut straight and a couple of 'extra slots' that were just started.
Spend a little more and get some good quality collets.

Hmmmm, that's news to me for sure. Sorry about the mislead but they must have changed something over the last year on their main website. I wonder why they charge so much on the website for shipping now. They're very reasonable on ebay but I see they only have a set of these and not individuals at this point.

They go under the name "discount_machine".

Oh, no separate ER40 collets on e bay?
I had about $100.00 worth of ER40 collets in my cart from there website, but even using checkout with Pay Pal, they wanted to have me fill out a bunch of forms, just to see the shipping, so I closed the page.
