Summary:A chuck is provided for use with a powered driver having a rotatable drive shaft. The chuck includes a plurality of jaws (22) movably disposed in passageways (40) of a cylindrical body (14), a nut (16) rotatably mounted about the body (14) and in communication with the jaws (22) such that rotation of the nut (16) in a closing direction moves the jaws (22) toward each other and rotation of the nut (16) in an opening direction moves the jaws (22) away from each other, and a sleeve rotatably mounted about the body (14). The sleeve is in communication with the nut (16) such that rotation of the sleeve rotationally drives the nut (16). The chuck also including a biasing element (208) disposed between the nut (16) an at least a portion of the sleeve configured to bias the sleeve toward a neutral position. The biasing element (208) limits an inertial force of the sleeve applied to the nut during operation of the powered driver.
