• Sherline 2.5" 4-Jaw Independent Chuck (14mm x 1mm)
• Enhances precision with 4-jaw independent design
• Holds irregular parts for accurate machining
• Features reversible jaws for larger stock
• Adapts to various spindle threads
• Offers versatile external/internal clamping

The Sherline 2.5" 4-Jaw Independent Chuck (14mm x 1mm) offers significant advantages over traditional 3-jaw chucks, making it an essential tool for precision machining tasks. This chuck is particularly adept at holding irregularly shaped parts, allowing for precise centering and the ability to deliberately hold parts off-center. This feature is invaluable when machining components such as cams and crankshafts, where tight clamping is crucial.

Despite the added setup time required due to the necessity of individually setting each jaw, the 4-jaw independent chuck provides unmatched versatility. The reversible jaws enhance its capability to accommodate larger stock, and the chuck can clamp both externally and internally, similar to the 3-jaw chucks. This versatility makes it a preferred accessory for those seeking to expand the functionality of their lathe machines.

The chuck is compatible with various spindle threads, including those used on Sherline and other lathes, such as old Unimat and Sears models. This adaptability ensures that it can be integrated into a wide range of machining setups, providing a reliable solution for diverse applications.

Note: Exercise caution when using the chuck, as the jaws must be set individually, which can add to the setup time.
