Jet 321120 Lathe with Taper Attachment

Product Description

The JET 321120 is a bench-style gap-bed lathe supplied with a taper attachment already installed at the factory. Sold as a complete unit under the BDB-1340A-TAK configuration, it is intended for metalworking applications in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial trade environments. The taper attachment allows the operator to cut precise tapered workpieces without offsetting the tailstock, making it a practical addition for machinists who require repeatable angled cuts. Installation of this unit is handled by qualified millwrights or industrial equipment technicians.

This lathe is suited for professional metalworking environments where taper-turning capability is a regular requirement. The BDB-1340A-TAK designation indicates the base BDB-1340A lathe platform with the taper attachment included as a factory-fitted accessory. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for job shops, tool rooms, and industrial maintenance departments that need a capable manual lathe with extended functionality out of the box.
