In the pic below, there's a black ring that holds the bearing guide wheel in place against the router bit. I need another one of those so I can position the guide wheel higher up on the shank. Knowing what that piece is called will give me something to actually search for.

  • @shirlock- do you mean collet? I disagree. A collet provides a clamping force, often to hold a tool, to transmit a motive force. This is simply a stop to prevent parts from sliding up the shaft. IMHO of course :)

  • My bad, a collet is a type of chuck, like on a dremel tool etc. OPPS!!!!
