Drill Chuck with Key TRYTON EAVM1UWK 13 mm — keyed metal drill chuck

TRYTON keyed metal drill chuck with 13 mm maximum capacity is a compact, mechanically tightened chuck designed to hold round and hexagonal shanks securely in hand drills and drill presses. The all-metal construction provides wear resistance for routine drilling tasks, while the geared key mechanism allows controlled tightening and reliable retention of drill bits. The chuck accepts a variety of common twist bits and driver accessories used in metalworking, woodworking and general DIY repairs.

Advantages

The metal body offers durable performance under repeated use and resists deformation during tightening. The keyed gear mechanism delivers greater clamping force and precise centring compared with keyless designs, reducing bit slip during heavy-duty drilling. Compact dimensions and standard taper/mounting compatibility make this chuck straightforward to install on compatible hand drills and drill presses. Maintenance is minimal — periodic cleaning and light lubrication preserve smooth operation and extend service life.

Suitable for

• General-purpose drilling in wood, metal and plastic
• Use with hand drills and bench drill presses
• DIY repair and assembly tasks requiring secure bit retention
• Applications using round and hexagonal shank bits and driver accessories

Key specifications

• Maximum bit capacity: 13 mm
• Chuck type: keyed metal drill chuck with geared key
• Accepted shank types: round and hexagonal
• Construction material: metal body and jaws
• Intended mounting: compatible with standard drill spindle mountings (check machine interface)

How to use

Mount the chuck on a compatible drill spindle or arbor according to the machine manufacturer's instructions ensuring secure fit. Insert the drill bit shank into the jaws, position it straight and at the required depth, then engage the key into the geared socket and turn clockwise until the jaws clamp the shank firmly. After tightening, remove the key before operating the drill. To release the bit, use the key to turn counterclockwise and withdraw the shank once the jaws are fully open.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, periodically clean metal chips and dust from the jaws and keyway, and apply a light machine oil to moving parts. Use the correct key size and avoid over-tightening beyond the chuck's mechanical limits. Verify compatibility with your drill or press spindle before installation and always remove the key from the chuck before starting the tool to prevent injury or damage.
