Keyless chuck recommendation

[MPVic]

After pinching my finger, again, in a drill chuck key, I'm looking for recommendations for an MT2 keyless chuck for drilling blanks on my lathe. There seems to be a huge variety available online which is confusing so any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark

Trying to figure out how you pinch your fingers? I have a keyless chuck on my Ryobi drill. Have to torque it down as opposed to the keyed chuck on my drill press.

Albrecht are a high quality keyless widely available on both sides of the pond

I have a few Albrecht chucks that have given good service over the years. They're a bit pricey. The Rohm chucks we have at work for the Bridgeport clones seem to be pretty decent. Those are the only ones I have experience with.

I have Albrecht chucks for my metal lathe and milling machine but IMO they are overkill for a wood lathe. I have THIS chuck for my wood lathe and I'm VERY happy with it.

I use this one and it works very well - recommended to me by Jim Hinze - Tegara MT2 Chuck

I'll throw in a second for the Precission drill chuck Rick noted. I've had one for many years now and have zero issues. Dead accurate, heavy and worth the money.
