The Rotur Deluxe Colleted Pen Mandrel is a product that has been designed and manufactured in the UK specifically for pen turning professionals. Similar to the Original Pen Mandrel, this Deluxe version features a unique quarter-turn action that clamps the shaft in place with precision and accuracy.

One of the key benefits of the Colleted Pen Mandrel is its completely dust-free Brass collet design, which remains hidden during the turning process. This helps to prevent dust and debris from accumulating in the mandrel and ensures the shaft remains central when turning. The precision-ground shaft ensures maximum stability and accuracy during the turning process.

Overall, the new Colleted Pen Mandrel is a top-quality tool that is ideal for professional pen turning applications. Its precise engineering and dust-free design make it a must-have for anyone looking to create high-quality, handmade writing instruments with ease and accuracy.

Quickly and easily make light pulls with the Rotur Light Pull Drive Kit.  The blank only needs to be drilled once thanks to the stepped drill bit. The knot in the string can then fit inside the light pull.

Drill the blank just over halfway through with the widest part of the stepped drill bit. Then slide the blank over the Stepped friction drive and support the other end with a pointed live centre, but don’t overtighten. The Rotur Deluxe Rotating Centre is ideal for this. Turn the blank at a high speed and finish.

Available in 1MT & 2MT. Includes Stepped drill 3 – 6mm x 120mm. We can also supply the stepped drill on its own. Made in the UK by Planet.
