Up for sale is an authentic, heavy-duty **Jacobs Drill Chuck** complete with its matching chuck key and a pre-fitted Morse Taper shank (arbor). Proudly manufactured in Sheffield, England, this professional-grade engineering tool is built to industrial standards. It is designed for seamless integration with workshop machinery such as pillar drills, metalworking lathes, tailstocks, and heavy mill setups.

Mechanical Function: The internal gripping jaws function as intended, opening and closing smoothly when turned. The teeth on both the chuck sleeve and the key are clean and sharp, ensuring positive engagement without skipping or slipping.
Cosmetic State: As a genuine, working tool from an engineering environment, the steel surfaces show honest cosmetic patina, handling marks, fine scuffs, and minor surface staining/oxidation from historical storage. This is superficial and does not affect the operation of the tool. Please review the high-resolution photograph to inspect the physical profile and markings.
