⅝ diameter knurls

[jack620]

Hello All,
I'm having trouble sourcing quality 5/8 diameter x 5/16 wide knurls in Australia. I'm hoping to avoid poor quality Chinese knurls from eBay.

I can get them from Accu-Trak in the US, but they have a minimum order of USD100 plus about $20 postage. In the UK, Axminster don't seem to sell knurling wheels without a holder. Chronos have ⅝ diameter wheels but they are ⅜ wide. Does anyone know of a seller in the UK?

Thanks Borriss. They only have ¾" knurls. I'm leaning towards modifying my holder to take ¾" knurls.

The knurls may be sold in Australia but sourced from China.
Check where they are manufactured before you pay your money.

Certainly will. The ones LPR sells are from China.
