The Enco brand is pretty bad. I'm not sure which Rohm chucks you're looking at - the 21500x are ballbearing chucks, the 66657x chucks are not (those are Rohm...
All chuck mfg.'s make various grades of chucks, but for my money, and every shop I worked in it was Jacobs Ball Bearing Super Chucks that were used. Here is a ...
George, I think you need at least two chucks. And if you don't mind paying for quality, you should probably buy all ball bearing chucks. For small work you...

I have a Polish Bison (chuck). It is 1/2", keyless and ball bearing. It was less than $40 from Penn Tool Co. It works well, at least as far as I am able to...

The Enco chuck is excellent. I bought both the Rohm and the Enco, I wound up returning the Rohm. The Enco had less runout and a nicer "feel" to it. Almost...
