Default need chuck key for this drill

I got an old Ingersol-Rand dirill from a garage sale.
It was missing the chuck key.
Anyone know where I can find one?

the hole for the key small, .152"

Check your big box store (Lowe's or Home Depot). I had to find one for an old drill press and they had one.

Try Mcmaster-carr, looks like it might take a K0 key, it will have a 1/8 pilot. A K1 key will have a 5/32 pilot.

Harbor freight had a multiple ratchet one when I was looking, maybe one of them would fit

Default How about keyless?

Why not just knock it off, and install a keyless? Not real expensive and easier in the shop! I replaced all my drill chucks from cordless drills with no batteries!

Note: On reversible, be sure to remove the screw before trying to remove the
chuck. AND the screw is usually left hand threads...
