Finish the bottom of your turned wood bowls and other vessels with our Vacuum Chuck. CNC machined from solid aluminum.
How to use this wood lathe chuck:
- Thread the vacuum chuck onto the lathe spindle
- Using a 3/8" ID plastic tube, connect a good vacuum supply to the 3/8" OD tube that passes through the headstock from the chuck.
- Position your turning on the chuck and turn on the vacuum.
- Smile because you now have a great way to finish your turnings!
Note: A vacuum swivel is not needed with this chuck because the tube inside the chuck is mounted in a bearing so it remains stationary as the chuck rotates.
- Threads: select from 1", 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" available in the drop down box above.
- Outside diameter: 3.5"
- Overall length: 4"
- Steel tube length: Select the length you need from the two options 18.5" or 20.75" beyond the end of the chuck.Â
- Chuck material: 6061 aircraft aluminum
