Clamping ranges
Outside clamping with solid outside jaws (standard setup): 6–110 mm gripping on the outside diameter.
Inside support / expanding with the same outside jaws: 80–250 mm internal gripping (boring-style holding).
Outside clamping with solid inside (reverse) jaws: 90–250 mm for large-diameter OD work.
Summary: overall envelope 6–250 mm (0.24–9.84 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 = 206 mm locating register, recess depth h = 5 mm; D2 = 226 mm bolt circle; 3× M12 mounting holes. Machine your adapter to match D1/D2. Adapter plate not included.
- Solid One-Piece Jaws: Outside jaws are pre-mounted on the chuck. A separate inside (reverse) solid jaw set is included in the box (not a duplicate of the mounted set).

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.
