Description: THIS IS A THREE SPOKE HUB AND SET OF HANDLES TO CONVERT A VINTAGE DELTA DRILL PRESS TO THE MULTI-HANDLE DESIGN. THREE SPOKES VERSUS THE OEM SINGLE HANDLE DESIGN PROVIDES MORE USER-FRIENDLY CONTROL OF THE DRILL PRESS'S QUILL OPERATION. ALL PARTS ARE BRAND NEW AND OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY. THE BILLET ALUMINUM HUB IS A CNC MACHINED PART SIMILAR TO THE ORIGINAL DELTA CAST IRON PART NUMBER DP-631. IT IS BORED TO 1.25" INCH IN DIAMETER TO FIT MOST EARLY DELTA DRILL PRESSES WITH AN 1 1/4" DIAMETER PINION SHAFT AND A 7/16" DIAMETER SINGLE LEVER. WE RECENTLY MADE A CHANGE TO THE METHOD OF SECURING THE HUB TO THE PINION SHAFT. FOR THE FIRST SEVERAL DOZEN KITS WE SOLD, WE WERE INCLUDING A 7/16” DOWEL PIN TO SLIDE THROUGH BOTH THE HUB AND THE PINION, WHERE THE EXISTING SINGLE HANDLE ORIGINALLY WAS. HOWEVER, WE HEARD OF A COUPLE OF INSTANCES WHERE THE HOLE IN THE CUSTOMER’S PINION SHAFT WAS OFF CENER JUST ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE DOWEL PIN FROM ALIGNING. OUR NEWEST KITS HAVE ELIMINATED THE DOWEL PIN AND REPLACED IT WITH TWO BLACK OXIDE PLATED ½ - 13 POINTED HEAD SET SCREWS THAT THREAD INTO THE HUB FROM BOTH SIDES AND LOCK INTO THE OLD HANDLE HOLE THROUGH THE PINION SHAFT. THIS TOTALLY SOLVED ANY MISALIGNMENT ISSUE. THE SPOKES ARE 5¼” LONG AND HAVE BEEN CNC MACHINED FROM C1018 CARBON STEEL, BEFORE BEING BRIGHT ZINC PLATED. . THE THREE KNOBS ARE BRAND NEW HIGH GLOSS BLACK PHENOLIC 1 5/8” DIAMETER ROUND KNOBS. THE KNOBS ARE REPLICAS OF THE ORIGINAL DELTA SATURN KNOB, WITH THE RAISED RIB DESIGN AROUND THE CENTER. INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE……WITH THE ORIGINAL LEVER OFF, THE HUB SLIPS ON THE PINION SHAFT AND THE TWO SET SCREWS ARE ALIGNED WITH THE PINION SHAFT’S CROSS DRILLED HOLE AND TIGHTENED. THE POINTED SET SCREWS FIND CENTER AS THEY BEGIN TO ENTER THE CROSS DRILLED HOLE. THE THREE SPOKES WITH KNOBS ARE THEN THREADED INTO THE CENTER HUB TO COMPLETE THE CONVERSION. Shipping for the complete set….. hub, set screws, (3) handles and (3) knobs is $10.50 in a USPS Priority Flat Rate box to anywhere in the USA. Other locations may have to pay an additional fee.
