Christine;

    Hello.  This is going w-a-a-a-y back in years.  About 25 or more
    when I worked in an industial tool supply store.  Which would be a
    good place to find the item - look in phone book or Thomas Register. 

    Can't remember the exact details of what it means, but I believe 33
    taper is refering to a specific Morse taper (spelling may be wrong). 

    It refers to the shape, taper, and length of the highly finished
    piece of the chuck that will fit into a matching reciever on the
    drill.  It stays in but still can come out with a good downward wack.
     I think it's held in by magic. 

    Eric
