Jet 321291 Taper Attachment Kit Zx Lathe

Product Description

The JET 321291 is a taper attachment kit designed for use with JET ZX series lathes. Taper attachments allow a lathe to cut precise angled or tapered profiles along a workpiece without repositioning the tailstock or offsetting the compound rest. The 321291 mounts to the lathe bed and guides the cross-slide along a set angle, producing consistent, repeatable tapers across multiple passes. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this type of accessory when producing conical shafts, tooling shanks, and similar precision components. At 140 pounds, this is a substantial, machine-grade attachment intended for shop installation.

The JET 321291 taper attachment kit is designed specifically for JET ZX lathe models. It is suited for professional machine shops, vocational training facilities, and industrial maintenance environments where metal-turning operations require accurate taper cutting capability. The kit format includes the components needed to complete the installation on a compatible ZX lathe without sourcing separate hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or millwright familiar with lathe accessory mounting procedures. Disconnect and lock out the lathe from its power source before beginning any installation work. Consult the JET ZX lathe operator manual for mounting dimensions, fastener specifications, and alignment procedures specific to your machine. Due to the weight of this attachment, use appropriate lifting equipment or a second person to safely position the unit during installation.
