    Default Flex shaft collet

    Any tips on how to improve the collet that holds the flex shaft on a shockwave 26. Thanks

    Whether it's a SW26 collet or a better made one, using a dab of Anti-seize on the threads allows for a smoother tightening, often eliminating the false tight feeling caused by inaccurate production machining. The rtr collets will split easily : be careful when tightening !
