Tony,
I looked at it closely after seeing your response and you are right......it is a series of parallel grooves. Not threads. I guess I was just expecting that it was threads. I hope it is hard steel as I would worry about damaging the grooves when "cranking" down to secure it in a chuck. Am I overly concerned?
Thanks for all the responses,
Jim

No experience with one, but I would presume it was designed to take the pressure.Originally Posted by Jim Tobias

I believe the jaws on my one-way stronghold chuck would hit right into that spur center as they have the parallel groves on the inside

I measured the grooves in the #2 jaws on my Stronghold and the peaks are about 2.4mm apart, center of peak to center of next peak, roughly just under 0.1". Talon #2 are the same. So if the groove troughs on the spur are that size it would fit.
