Cheap casting, coated with black enamel paint to make it appear well-finished. None of the heads fit my Black and Decker.

I just received 4 chuck keys the small end has 3/16" pilot the rest are 1/4" it is made of cast aluminum and coated with black paint. The paint makes the shafts larger so they dont fit in chuck. I sanded the paint off mine so it wouid fit. There were no sparks and its nonmagnitic. I twisted as hard as i could and it didn't break but since it is made of aluminium Im sure it will not last long but 4 for 12 bucks is hard to beat.
its a cheap lite use chuck key

Update.

All four have broke. The heads twist off after only a few uses. They are made of cast aluminum.

I bought this directly from AS&S along with some other items. Seemed like a good deal. I should have remembered that, generally, you get what you pay for. This key works, but is made of some sort of cast (pot?)metal. If you're not really careful, the teeth chip off. Better make sure it's perfectly & completely engaged, and doesn't slip while using, or it will soon become useless. I'd have happily paid twice, or three times, the cost of this one for one that would last as long as the drill. Lesson learned. 2 stars for the price directly, because it got me by, but I wouldn't recommend you waste your money. With shipping included via Amazon: 1 star - WAY too expensive. I just ordered a 4-way from Northern Tool for $9.61 (pickup). Only a fraction over what this sorry one costs on Amazon. For close to $10, I expect a quality product. I'll update upon receiving the one through Northern.

I loved this key because is 4 keys in one, sincerely i loved this item, easy to use and good price, thank you Pvh3424

Instead of searching for the right size chuck key in the shop, I decided to purchase one of these and hang it on a peg board. This is a great idea and stops those insane searches at the wrong moment.
