ALBRECHT

PRECISION
DRILL CHUCKS

ALBRECHT
The World's Most Consistently Accurate Drill Chucks
For the past 100 years, Albrechts line of precision drill chucks has consistently earned the highest
praise for outstanding quality and accuracy.
At the Albrecht factory, located outside of Stuttgart, Germany, in-process air gages and
custom test fixtures are used to inspect all components throughout each step of the
manufacturing process. Upon assembly, each chuck is qualified with 46 different diameter test pins
at two distinct locations on each pin, and then a quality control inspector repeats the process with 46
different pins before approving the chuck for packaging.
Drill chuck accuracy is critical to producing accurate hole sizing and promoting longer drill life. In
todays competitive environment of short lead times and slim margins, a few scrapped parts can quickly
kill a jobs profits. Can you afford to take a chance on anything less than an Albrecht?

WHAT DOES IT TAKE

TO MAKE A CLASSIC?
Collar Knurled steel collar gives good
gripping surface when opening & closing chuck.
Shell Heat-treated alloy steel.
After heat treatment, shell threads are ground
to exact size of mating threads in each hood.
This assembly then stays together through rest
of manufacturing process.

Two I.D.s and shoulder ground in the same chucking

for accuracy.
Shoulder and face ground square to both inside
diameters and shoulder.
Bearings Precision ground hardened balI bearings.

Internal taper ground concentric

to outside ground surfaces.
Body Heat-treated alloy steel.
O.D. and shoulder ground square
and concentric to internal taper.

O.D. and shoulder ground square and concentric

internal taper.
Spindle Heat-treated alloy steel. Threads
are lapped together at assembly to ensure
maximum clamping power.

Drive Pin
Jaw Guide Angle ground to match hood.
Jaws Made from heat-treated high-carbon alloy
steel. Each jaw undergoes 2022 separate machining
operations during manufacture.
Internal hood angle ground square to face.

Critical surfaces ground to exacting tolerances.

Hood Heat-treated alloy steel. Knurled for
positive grip.

Surfaces ground for appearance.

SELF-TIGHTENING DESIGN
The more torque that is applied to the chuck,
the tighter it grips!
All Albrecht Precision Drill Chucks, except for the Key-Lock models, incorporate a unique
self-tightening feature that causes them to grip drills tighter as more torque is applied.
This self-tightening advantage, combined with the fact that keyless chucks are easily opened
by hand, is causing many industries to abandon key-type drill chucks altogether.

DIAMOND-IMPREGNATED JAWS
Albrechts patented diamond-impregnated jaws eliminate the problems of drill slippage and jaw
damage that often occur when using carbide or hardened-shank drills.

FOR CARBIDE
AND HARDENEDSHANK DRILLS

Because the diamond particles embedded in the jaws are harder than the drill shanks they are
gripping, they are able to penetrate for a deep, no-slip bite.
U.S. patent number 5,340,128

CNC DRILL CHUCKS

CNC Drill Chuck Advantages

Excellent for CNC Machining Centers

Royal offers two Albrecht drill chuck models
designed specifically for CNC machining centers:

Although some manufacturers use collet chucks or

toolholders for holding drills, often an Albrecht CNC Drill
Chuck would be a better choice.
q A drill chuck can hold any size drill shank within

its range. This is important because many tap drills

have odd-sized shanks that are not compatible with
conventional toolholders and collets.
q As the jaws of a drill chuck close, they always remain

parallel to centerline. This results in uniform gripping

force and maximum accuracy, regardless of the
drill shank diameter.

ALBRECHT WRENCH-LOCK
CNC DRILL CHUCKS
q Internal construction is very similar to Albrecht Classic Drill Chucks.
q Integral CAT and BT shanks make these chucks shorter and more rigid than a

chuck/arbor combination, resulting in:

- Greater accuracy
- Greater rigidity
- Larger work envelope
q Integral shank eliminates the possibility of a chuck slipping on its arbor.
q Chuck can be easily tightened and opened by hand.
q Extra tightening force can be achieved by using a spanner wrench (included),

although this chuck also incorporates the same self-tightening feature as the
Classic models (See Page 115).

ALBRECHT KEY-LOCK CNC DRILL CHUCKS

q New, compact design provides increased capacity and better clearance.

q Extremely accurate Albrecht Key-Lock Drill Chucks are the most accurate drill

chucks available.
q Unique worm/gear arrangement is similar to the berchuck and transmits extremely

high gripping force to the jaws.

q Short length and integral shank provide exceptional rigidity.
q Thru-coolant feature is standard on all Albrecht Key-Lock Drill Chucks.
q Non-rotating hood chuck is opened and closed via a hex key inserted into the side

of the body.
q Balanced for use on all CNC machines up to 7000 rpm (75408 balanced to 18,000 rpm).
q Can be operated in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

Thru-coolant feature
is standard on all
Key-Lock chucks.

The key-operated worm and gear assembly generates very high grip force
and ensures that the chuck cant loosen during operation because a worm
can drive a gear, but a gear cannot drive a worm.

ALBRECHT STAINLESS STEEL

KEYLESS DRILL CHUCKS

Ergon-Grip
q Albrecht is the world's largest manufacturer of stainless steel keyless drill

chucks, supplying virtually all of the large medical device companies

throughout North America, Europe, and Asia.
q Albrecht stainless steel drill chucks are specifically designed for

surgical applications. Available features include:

Albrecht developed the Ergon-Grip specifically for
environments where the user wears surgical gloves. The
specially designed hood and collar are optimized to
provide maximum grip even when wet. Eliminating the
traditional knurl reduces the risk of gloves tearing
and aids in sterilization by eliminating hundreds of tiny
bacteria collection points.

- Models with special hood surface-contouring to maximize grip when

wearing gloves, even if wet.
- A one-piece collar that eliminates crevices where foreign matter can collect.
- A ratcheting locking mechanism to prevent accidental opening.

q Eliminates the need for special machines to drill

small holes.
q Reduces breakage and deflection of small drills.
Note: Spring is specifically balanced for use with
model 15-J0. The use of other chucks could result in
decreased accuracy and performance.

Simple to use:
1. Grasp free-turning knurled ring and feed with gentle
finger pressure.
2. Spring-loaded. When ring is released, chuck retracts
automatically.
