Clamping ranges

Outside clamping with solid outside jaws (standard setup): 50–350 mm gripping on the outside diameter.

Inside support / expanding with the same outside jaws: 170–630 mm internal gripping (boring-style holding).

Outside clamping with solid inside (reverse) jaws: 170–630 mm for large-diameter OD work.

Summary: overall envelope 50–630 mm (1.97–24.80 in) depending on jaw configuration.

Key Features

• Heavy-Duty HT300 Cast Iron: High mass and damping for large workpieces and heavy cuts.
• Hardened Scroll & Gears: AISI 5140 scroll (HRC 43–48) and bevel gears (HRC 45–50).
• Hardened Jaws (HRC 52–58): AISI 1045 for grip and wear resistance.
• Guaranteed Precision: Checked with four different test bars as part of our acceptance process. Repeatability ≤0.05 mm (0.002").
• Plain Back Mount: D1 = 560 mm locating register, recess depth h = 8 mm; D2 = 595 mm bolt circle; 6× M16 mounting holes. Machine your adapter to match D1/D2. Adapter plate not included.

Error-Free Jaw Installation

Jaws and body are numbered (1, 2, 3) so each jaw matches its slide—faster setup and better concentricity.

Versatile Applications

• Metal lathe: Turning, facing, drilling, boring (with correct adapter).
• Wood lathe: Where spindle and safety requirements allow.
• Milling machine / machining center: On suitable arbors or fixtures.
• Drilling machine: Concentric holding.
• CNC: Production use where applicable.
• Grinder: When speed-rated and safely mounted.

Compatibility Guide

Machine swing or envelope must clear the chuck body and fully opened jaws. Plan a comfortable margin above nominal diameter D. Your adapter must match D1, D2, and the bolt pattern listed above.

Maintenance

Clean regularly. Apply molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) grease to the scroll and bevel gears.

Safety

Never run with the chuck key engaged. Observe safe speeds for chuck size and workpiece balance.
