Disassembling BB Chuck

[PixMan]

I would think that being a copy of a Jacobs 14N or 16N Super Ball bearing chuck that the instructions for disaasembling and reassembling one of those would work fine. There's probably plenty of websites and YouTube videos on how to do it, and I know it does involve pressing the body off & on.

Best of luck Ed.

I would tend to agree since Llambrich use to make chucks for Jacobs many years ago. Maybe they still do.

Don't forget the pictures Ed.

I think one of my 14N's has a broken/cracked tooth somewhere inside I need to investigate.

I found a replacement parts list for the Llambrich chuck and they look similar to the Jacobs parts so I assume it's assembled similarly also. Not having a shop press puts this project on hold though.

You might try giving it a ultrasonic bath if you can get the use of one, I find it gets dirt out of the most amazing places.

I hope they are cheaper than the Jacobs parts. A Jacobs repair kit costs the same as a brand new chuck!

I noticed that. Kind of ridiculous.

Try the ultrasonic route Brian suggested. Are you on good terms with your Dentist? They have ultrasonic cleaning stuff.
