Surgical drill chuck (A device designed to grip a cutting tool (normally a drill bit or other rotational cutting tool) using three adjustable jaws that are geared to be manually closed concentrically upon the cutting tool. It is attached (locked) to a surgical drilling machine which is usually powered, but may be manual. A special key is often used to close and tighten the jaws. Commonly known as a Jacobs chuck, it is typically made of high-grade stainless steel to resist the corrosive effects of sterilization processes. This is a reusable device.)
