Ryobi router collet

[SteveInBris]

I picked up a display model of the Ryobi Plunger Router RRT1600-s on clearance from Bunnings and now that I've gone to use it I have found that there is not collet in place. The nut is there but no collet (particularly the 12.7mm collet). Are there generic collets that work? Having diffculty finding one.

Hello @SteveInBris

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's great to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about the collet for your Ryobi Router.

The Ryobi 1600W Plunge Router accepts two types of collets. One is 6.35mm and the other one is 12.7mm these parts need to be specially ordered from the Special Orders Desk. The part number for the 12.7mm collet is 039824001106 and is referred to as Part number 60 in the Ryobi parts diagram. It's always advisable to double-check with the Tool Specialist and Special Orders desk to make sure that you are ordering the correct part. If you need further assistance in ordering this part, please let me know.

Hello @scottyh 

Thank you so much for your patience. The good news is that the collet for the RTR400-S is available. I was a bit confused as your other post was referring to the RTR440 and realized that this was not the correct model. The part number for the collet is #039823001022. It is in stock and can be ordered at the special orders desk. 

If you need more assistance, please let us know.

I should have said thanks @EricL. I received the collet via special order desk in December and absolutely love owning a working router.
