    Default replacement for the burnerd 4 jaw independent chuck

    As some of you may be aware, most of the independent 4 jaw chucks available from asia, are roughly twice the weight of the original Pratt-Burnerd's 4.5kg, which are very hard to find at the moment. I came across one the other day, that is virtually the same weight and appearance as the Pratt. It's identifying model number was K005 and seems to operate as smoothly as the Pratt. Both the body and jaws carry the K005 label.
    As the Chinese chucks have "K" proceeding most of there model numbers, it may well be Chinese. I have done a few web searches but can't find any specific reference to it. Does anyone know the manufacturers identity.
    I am reasonably happy with the quality of the better 3 jaw self centring chucks from asia, not as good as the original but very acceptable at the price point, but would love to be able to offer a close approximation for the Pratt 4 jaw.

    Mal,
    I'd love to get hold of a lighter 4 jaw chuck. Two reasons:
    1. Easier to fit and remove
    2. Less chance of unscrewing itself (it happed once, and I never want it to happen again)
