    Cool 16c collet closer for HAAS lathes?

    Hi,
    I have 2 Haas Lathes- An SL-20 and a TL-1, both with 3-jaw chucks. I want to put a 16c collet closer on one of them so I can use the collets from my now-defunct Hardinge Superslant lathe. Does anyone know of a retrofit kit, or someone who sells closers for these machines? So far I have only been able to find a 5c collet closer (Royal Products).
    THANKS!

    What the spindle nose size on the lathe? If it is a A2-5 size, I might have a 16C collet closer for it. I however do NOT have a drawbar nut for it- you will need to buy or make this lathe specific adapter...
