4-Jaw Lathe Chuck / cast-iron body

Lathe chucks are chucks for workpiece clamping fixtures on lathes and dividers. The machined steel body of the lathe chuck provides better high-speed performance. They are supplied either for direct mounting or must be attached to the machine or equipment using a flange. Four-jaw lathe chucks are ideal for round or regularly shaped 4-, 8-, and 12-sided workpieces. The workpiece is always held centered, because the jaws are operated by a scroll chuck. Basic lathe equipment includes hardened drill and lathe jaws.
