Nova Select Precision Midi Chuck, 1” X 8TPI Direct Thread

The Nova 48122 Select Precision Midi Chuck with 1” x 8TPI direct thread is a fully-featured, value-priced chuck. A four-jaw self-centering chuck, its compact size minimizes loads on small lathe spindles and bearings, making it suitable for smaller wood lathes with up to 12” of swing. With unique Nova features such as Auto Stop, copper composite jaw slides, and 2” Jaws included standard, the Select Precision Midi boasts excellent value at an entry-level price. The fast two-lever operation makes it ideal for fast production turning of smaller work. Takes the same accessory range as other Nova Chucks. Direct threaded 1” x 8TPI RH. Will not accept inserts.

Features:

• Small, compact design minimizes load on small spindles and bearings
• Auto Stop keeps jaws from protruding past chuck body
• 2-Lever operation offers very fast action—ideal for production turning of small pieces
• Special woodturning profile on jaws cuts into wood fibers for a firm grip
• Made from precision machined 1045 high tensile steel.
