Product Description
This larger chuck takes up no more center-to-center space than the 2.5″ chuck, but it will hold larger work. It has a clamping range of 3/32″ (2 mm) up to 1-1/2″ (38 mm) diameter with the jaws in the normal position. With the jaws in the reversed position, work up to 3-1/4″ (82.5mm) can be gripped. The hole through the chuck is .687″ (17 mm). Rotating the knurled ring closes all three jaws simultaneously to grip round or hexagonal stock quickly. Tommy bars (provided) are used in the side holes to tighten and loosen the chuck for more leverage. The chuck has a 3/4-16 thread to fit Sherline’s spindle.
We offer a variety of jaws options including soft jaws, interchangable jaws made of different materials and pins jaws. To customize your chuck you can build your own chuck here.
