Lathe Chuck Jaws

Lathe chuck jaws are interchangeable clamping elements designed to securely hold the workpiece in the lathe chuck. Internal jaws are used for gripping components from the inside, such as cylindrical bores, ensuring stability and precision when machining from within. External jaws allow firm clamping from the outside, ideal for turning shafts, pipes and solid components. Soft jaws are perfect for precision adaptation – they can be pre-machined to achieve a perfect fit, making them particularly suitable for batch production where repeatability is key. Hard jaws are highly wear-resistant and durable, ideal for demanding machining operations requiring a strong and reliable grip.
