Hi, I'm after an 8mm-5/16" collet for my Makita RT0700C Trimmer. I live in Australia and have found a store in the UK that have them, but they don't ship overseas. Hoping someone might have had a similar problem and found a solution.
Thanks,
Ian.

G'day Ian.
Have a look at McJing Tools, Router, Router Accessories, Adaptor bushings.
Cheers

I'm not sure why you would want an 8mm collet cone when 1/4" bits are so readily available here in Australia and of course on Ebay. However, these 8mm cones are in stock here in the Perth branch of Makita and I would think in all other states as well, the part no. is; 763618-5, I know because I just checked! Good luck Greg.

Thanks to all of the suggestions, I managed to locate one from a Makita agent via a special order as they don’t appear in their catalogue.
Once again thanks,
Nicko.
