    Looking for a BT30 Spindle

    Does anyone know of a good supplier for BT30 spindles? 1-3 HP and approx 3000RPM. I would love to find a cartridge design w/ a build in mechanism for pull stud retention. I plan to belt drive it from the spindle motor.

    I've come across a nice little unit from a Brother TC211, but it's probably not meant for milling (drill tap machine). It has small 62mm bearings.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    All 30 taper spindles will have rather small bearings. The brothers did fine for a 30 taper mill BTW.
