Stronghold Chuck

This heavy duty chuck is designed for large lathes (16" swing or greater) to provide maximum gripping power!

The Stronghold Chuck is operated by a key. Key operation provides two major advantages:

• One handed operation
• Solid holding power
• 5 to 1 ratio assures powerful clamping

The body diameter of this chuck is 4½" (the largest currently available in our chuck family).

Note: If your lathe is less than a 16" swing, we recommend our Talon Chuck.

The following features are standard on our chucks:

• quality materials
• nickel plated body
• hardened base jaws
• manganese phosphate coated scroll

Key Features Include:

• Single-Hand Key Operation
• Our Patented Over-Extension Safety System (see below for more details)
• 4-Jaw Scroll Chuck
• Rugged Base Jaw Design

Safety

This wouldn't classify as a ONEWAY chuck if it didn't include our patented over extension prevention system for added safety. This prevents the base jaws from coming loose during operation.

Accessory Jaws

A wide range of accessory jaws are available for this chuck to cover all your turning requirements.

The following Jaw sets are available for this chuck:

• Spigot Jaws - smaller turnings
• #3 and #4 Jaws - turning large bowls, vases etc
• Jumbo Jaws - finishing the bottom of bowls, or holding odd shaped peices
• Flat Jaws - make custom jaws and attach them to these plates
• Collett Jaws - used to hold a large variety of round stock

Capacities

Capacities of the Stronghold chuck with standard #2 Jaws:

Weight

The chuck weighs approximately 8 lbs (fully assembled with the No. 2 Jaws). Shipping weight w/ adaptor is about 10 lbs It is considerably heavier than the Talon Chuck (3.5 lbs) or Oneway Chuck (4.5 lbs) which makes it a very desirable chuck for large size lathe owners who want an exceptionally powerful grip for turning larger pieces.
